A Time Series chart shows measures over a date or time dimension (e.g., daily revenue, weekly orders). You can mix line, bar, and area series.

​
Data Requirements

  • One date dimension (e.g., order date, created at) for the X-axis
  • One or more measures (e.g., SUM of sales, COUNT of orders)

​
How to Set Up

  1. Create or edit a metric. Add a date-type column as a dimension and one or more measures.
  2. Click the Charts icon and choose Time series.
  3. Click Settings → Chart types → Chart properties.
  4. Under Required Axis:
    • Horizontal Axis: The date dimension.
    • Vertical Axis: The measure(s) to plot.
  5. In Appearance (or chart configuration), use Time series settings to:
    • Group by: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, or Yearly.
    • Series type: For each measure, choose Line, Bar, Area, Stack, or Combo.

​
Time Grain / Group By

The Group by option buckets dates (e.g., by month or week). Use it when raw dates are too granular. Options include:
  • Daily
  • Weekly
  • Monthly
  • Quarterly
  • Yearly

​
Dynamic Group By

When Dynamic group by is enabled, you can change the time grain from the metric card or full-screen view.
