# Chart Setup Overview

> How to set up each chart type in Databrain. Data requirements, axis assignment, and chart-specific settings.

This guide explains how to configure each chart type in Databrain. For each chart, you choose dimensions and measures, assign them to axes or specific roles, and adjust settings in **Settings** (or **Appearance & Actions**).

## Access Chart Setup

1. Create or edit a metric from your dashboard.
2. Click the **Charts** icon to select a chart type.
3. Use the **Settings** icon (or **Appearance & Actions**) to configure axes and chart-specific options.
4. Configure **Chart types** and **Chart properties** in the settings panel.
