Metric Calculations

Values for the line chart can be calculated using the sum, average, maximum, or mininum of values within a specified column.

X-Axis

Within a line chart, the y-axis represents the value and the x-axis represents the dimension the values are measured against. Most commonly, line charts use time as the x-axis (e.g. total transactions over time) . When creating a line chart, you’ll need to select which field you want to use for the x-axis.

If you select a date field, you can opt to group by the day, week, month, quarter, or year.

Categories

Additionally, you can group values by a specified category. Each category will show as its own line.
