How to group data in Looker Studio?

Looker Studio recently added a new feature to create a custom group without writing any line of code. You can visually set custom labels on dimension values matching a specific condition. It can be helpful to group countries or campaign matching sets of conditions.

Here, we will show you how to use the features.

How do you create a custom group in Looker Studio?
