Creating a Chart

Visualising data through charts helps uncover patterns, trends, and insights more effectively. Every visualisation starts with a natural language query, which retrieves data that can then be formatted into different chart types. The platform provides flexible customszation options to tailor charts to specific analytical needs.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Chart

1. Enter a Natural Language Query

   • Begin by writing a query in natural language within the query area.
   • Example: "Show total NGR by country for the last 6 months."

Show total NGR by country for the last 6 months.

2. Review Default Table Format

   • By default, results will be displayed in a tabular format.

3. Access Chart Preferences

   • Click on Preferences to access visualization settings.

4. Select a Chart Type

   • Choose from available chart types such as bar charts, pie charts, line charts, tree maps, and more.

5. Configure Chart Settings

   • Select the legends and value columns based on the data.
   • Apply any additional options available for the selected chart type.

6. Set as Default Visualization (Optional)

   • To make the selected chart the default for this insight, ensure the checkmark for the chart option is selected.

7. Save the Insight

   • Click Save to store the visualization, making it accessible for future reference.

Following these steps ensures a smooth and efficient process for generating clear and insightful visualisations.
