Area chart

You can use an area chart to depict changes in a data measure over time.

In an area chart, the Y-axis is set to a measure you choose from your built-in and custom fields. The X-axis is set to the time period you choose in the global filters. In the Group by dropdown, you can add an additional dimension to the chart (for example, group by department) for further comparison.

Line chart

You can use a line chart to depict changes in a data measure over time using a series of data points.

In a line chart, the Y-axis is set to a measure(s) you choose from your built-in and custom fields. The X-axis is set to the time period you choose in the global filters. In the Group by dropdown, you can add an additional dimension to the chart (for example, group by department) for further comparison.

Table

You can use a table chart to display information for a measure in arranged columns and depict how this data changes over time.

In a table, Cells and Columns are set to the measures you choose from your built-in and custom fields. Rows are set to the time period you choose in the global filters. 

You can select the Show Total Column checkbox to add a Totals column to your table.

Vertical Stacked Bar Chart

You can use a vertical stacked bar chart to depict changes in multiple series of data over time.

In this type of chart, the Y-axis is set to the measure you choose from your built-in and custom fields. The X-axis is set to the time period you choose in the global filters. In the Group by dropdown, you can add an additional dimension to the chart (for example, group by department) for further comparison.

Horizontal Bar Chart

You can use a horizontal bar chart to compare two different measures and depict those data points horizontally. 

In this type of bar chart, the X-axis and the Y-axis are set to the measure(s) you choose from your built-in and custom fields. In the Group by dropdown, you can add an additional dimension to the chart (for example, group by department) for further comparison.

Pie chart

You can use a pie chart to visualize the different values of a measure and compare how they fit together as a whole.

In a pie chart, the Measure and Slice data points are set from the measures you choose from your built-in and custom fields. You have the option to select multiple pies to add an additional dimension to your pie chart data.

Table (Non-Timeseries)

You can use a table chart to display information for multiple measures in arranged columns and rows.

In a non-timeseries table, the Cells, Rows, and Columns are all set from the measures you choose from your built-in and custom fields.

Vertical bar chart

You can use a vertical bar chart to compare two different measures and depict those data points vertically. 

In a vertical bar chart, the Y-axis and the X-axis are set to the measure(s) you choose from your built-in and custom fields. In the Group by dropdown, you can add an additional dimension to the chart (for example, group by location) for further comparison.
