Creating a report by chart type

If you have in mind the type of chart you'd like to create, you can start creating your report by selecting a chart type. Visualizer provides guidance on how to create the chart.

  1. In Visualizer, click Change Visualization. It shows you the types of available charts.
  2. Select the visualization type you want to use. Visualizer indicates what attributes and measures are needed to create the report type. Many charts need only one measure and one attribute. Others, such as bubble charts, need more data in order to create a highly useful visualization.

    The Chart Builder shows only the sections that are applicable to the chart type. The sections that display (such as Color and Size) differ depending on the chart type you select.
  3. Add measures and attributes and save the report as described in the previous section.
