This article gives specific examples of how to configure the visualization tab of the Data Analysis Panel for various types of data visualizations.

A recommendation engine provides guidance to help you find the most fitting visualization according to best practices.

A table visualization lets you display data in a tabular view. A table is also known as a data grid or data table.

A chart (or graph) lets you visualize data points along one or more axes, such as bars plotting monthly sales compared with a line plotting the sales target.

A pie chart displays each value as part of a pie or donut representing its percentage of the total, and can display a sunburst made up of multiple levels or rings.

A waterfall chart displays the cumulative sum of a series of values.

Radar charts plot data points as symbols, lines or areas in a circular layout.

A legend automatically provides a key to the colors used by other data visualization controls such as charts and maps.

A data label is a data-driven text label that you can add to your dashboard, report, scorecard, or small multiple.

A data image is an image visualization based on your data, which you can add to your dashboard, report, scorecard, or small multiple. Use it to show a different image depending on data values.

A treemap is a visualization that can display a large amount of hierarchical data using nested rectangles of varying size and color.

The relationship diagram arranges items in your data based on the relationships between them in a freeform graph.

The Sankey diagram displays how quantities are distributed among items between two or more stages.

The tree diagram displays the hierarchical structure of a set of data.

A chord diagram displays interrelated data arranged around a circle, and the quantities between each pair of items.
