You can create a chart from any Notion destination that has finished its first sync. Charts read from the databases Finta syncs into your Notion workspace, so make sure the data you want to chart is already there.

​
Open the chart editor

1

Open your Notion destination

In your Finta dashboard, select your Notion destination from the sidebar.
2

Go to Charts

Select Charts under Extensions, then click Create Chart.
The editor has a live Preview on the left and the configuration panel on the right. The preview updates as you change the configuration.
The editor is designed for a larger screen. For the best experience, build charts on a desktop or laptop.

​
Configure the chart

1

Name your chart

Enter a Title. Use Show Title? to control whether the title appears in the embedded chart.
2

Choose a chart type

Pick Metric, Bar, Line, or Donut. The configuration fields below change to match the type — see Chart types.
3

Select a database

Choose the Notion database to chart. This is the Table Finta syncs your data into (for example, Transactions).
4

Map your fields

Choose the Value field to measure (such as Amount) and, depending on the chart type, an X-Axis field, a Group By field, and a Calculation (Sum, Average, Min, or Max).
5

Add a filter (optional)

Click the filter icon in the Data section to limit the rows the chart includes. See Filters.
The live preview reads the first 100 rows from your database so it stays fast. The published chart uses your full dataset.

​
Save and embed

When the preview looks right, click Create Chart. Finta saves the chart and shows a Chart Created dialog containing the embed link: 
https://app.finta.io/charts/<chart-id>
Copy that link and paste it into Notion (or anywhere that supports embeds). See Embed in Notion for the full walkthrough.

​
Edit or delete a chart

From the Charts list you can:
  • Edit — open any chart to change its configuration; the preview and embed update immediately.
  • Copy link — grab the embed URL again without reopening the chart.
  • Delete — remove one or more charts. Deleting a chart breaks any embeds pointing to it.
