Gauge, Progress Bar, and Linear Gauge show one main value or progress toward a target.
Gauge V1 is deprecated. If you see a message to use Gauge V2 instead, choose Gauge V2 from the chart type list. Gauge V2 offers improved styling and options.

Data Requirements
- One measure (the value to display)
- Optional: Progress max and Progress min columns for range (Progress Bar, Linear Gauge)
- Optional: Dimensions for gauge breakdown (Gauge V2)
How to Set Up
- Create a metric with at least one measure. For progress, add optional min/max columns.
- Click the Charts icon and choose the chart type.
- Click Settings → Chart types → Chart properties.
- Under Required Axis:
- Gauge V2: Measure (metric) and optional Dimensions for breakdown.
- Progress Bar / Linear Gauge: Measure (progress column). Optionally set Progress max and Progress min columns in chart configuration.
Min and Max
In Appearance or chart configuration:
- Set Min and Max for the scale (e.g., 0–100 for %, or 0–capacity for usage).
- If not set, the app may use the measure range or 0–100.
Thresholds (Gauge and Linear Gauge)
Thresholds color parts of the scale (e.g., green 0–60, yellow 60–80, red 80–100). Configure in Appearance → chart-specific settings.
Set Prefix (e.g., ”$”) and Suffix (e.g., ”%”, “K”) in Appearance → Formatting.
