Chart

Chart is the most basic component to visualize an Analysis for users to understand the data, get insights from and operate upon.

Time Units: show the time unit used for this chart: Day, Week, Month or Year. In order to change the time unit, you must re-execute the Formula.
Chart Types: switch between Line, Bar, Stacked Bar and Percentage Area charts.
Measure Display: control the displayed lines from Measure, Measure + MA7, MA7 (7-Day Moving Average) or Cumulative Sum.
Date Popup: show the values of each line at the selected date.
Measure Selector: control which measure should be displayed. For a compound Measure (e.g. a division), you can select up to two measures to show on the chart using the Y-axes on left and right. For example, if Result = Revenue / DAU. You can choose 2 out of three measures to be displayed.
Group Selector: in case of a Breakdown or Cohort analysis, the top 25 groups are returned and a maximum of 8 can be displayed on one chart. Each group has its own chart and symbol. You can click on the symbol to hide/show that group on the chart. You can also use the drop down selector to choose to display other groups using this color/symbol.
Hide/Show All Groups: show or hide all groups with one click.
Show Incidents: show or hide Incident markers (eg holidays, marketing campaigns, releases) on the chart. Incidents are managed in the Incident component.
Context Menu: extra chart operations.
Y-axis:
- Truncate: disabled by default, means that Y-Axis starts from 0. When enabled, Y-Axis will not always start with 0. Used when the "action" is happening within a more narrow range of values.
- Format: $, #, %
- Linear: define min and max values on the Y-Axis
- Dual Axes: used to compress a chart when 2 different measures are displayed by enabling a second Y-axis on the right of the chart
Incidents: control which Incident markers to be shown.
Create New Schedule: create a schedule to execute the analysis.
Copy Chart Link: copy the chart's URL to the clipboard.
Export to CSV: download the chart data in a CSV file.
Export to Jupyter: launch a new Jupyter Notebook with the chart data imported. It requires Jupyter Integration to be configured.
Edit Chart Info...: give the chart/analysis a name and description.
Chart Settings: Save or Reset the chart settings. These include all modifications you can do to a chart once an analysis has been executed such as which groups are shown in the result, the type of the chart (bar, linear, etc) and the formatting of the measure.
Add to Dashboard...: add this chart to an existing or new dashboard.

Dashboard

You can create multiple dashboards which contain different charts. All the charts are interactive.

Show in Formula: hovering on the info icon of a chart will show you the Info Popup. You can click on "Show in Formula" to load the chart in Formula view and conduct further analyses.
Refresh the Dashboard: Re-executes all analyses on the Dashboard to bring them up to date.

Schema: select which schema to analyze (in case there is more than one).
Measure: give the measure a name, or select from a list of pre-define measures. Each measure is defined as a Function over some Events with Event Filters.
Function: applicable to the Events selected. Some functions (with *) require you to specify the Event Property to be applied to.
- Counting: Count Events, Unique Users, Unique Value*
- Aggregation*: Sum, Average, Min, Max
Event(s): multiple events can be selected. You can also click on the selected event to remove it.
Event Filter: specify filter condition on the Properties of the event. After adding one Event Filter, you can add a second one and specify the relationship between them: AND/OR
Operator: add another Event to the Function or Measure to the Formula. Currently only division and addition is supported between Measures.
Global Filter: the filter conditions applicable to all Measures. After adding one Global Filter, you can add a second and a third one with AND/OR relationship.
Group By: how the Measures should be grouped by.
Breakdown: select 1 or 2 Properties to group by.
Cohort: select multiple Cohorts to group by.
Date Range: select Start Date and End Date for the analysis.
Time Unit: select how the results should be bucketed in Day, Week, Month or Year
