Visualizing report data in a chart

After defining report fields on the Data page, add charts to visualize your report data. Charts are the graphic equivalent of tables and cross-tab tables. You can use this powerful charting feature to produce advanced and visually appealing charts to display a simple summary of your data or to represent complex relationships within it.

The following topics discuss visualizing report data in a chart:

• Types of charts
• Creating a chart
• Adding functions to field data in charts
• Formatting a chart
• Pointing the needle of a meter chart to a specific field value
• Visualizing multiple charts on a canvas to display in reports, dashboards, and storyboards
• Automatically generating charts and comparing metrics through Assisted Insights
• Displaying incident priorities by color in a time series chart

On the Charts page, you can drag and drop fields to add them to the chart axis, and select the type of chart you want to create.
