Chart Widgets

Chart widgets display query results as visual charts, making it easy to spot trends, compare values, and understand distributions.

Available chart types

Kogenta Connect supports common chart types for data visualization:

• Bar charts - compare values across categories
• Line charts - show trends over time or continuous data
• Pie charts - display proportions of a whole
• Area charts - similar to line charts with filled areas for emphasis
• Scatter plots - show relationships between two numeric variables
• Heatmaps - display value density across two dimensions

Configuring a chart

When adding a chart widget, you configure:

Data binding

• Query - which workflow query provides the data
• Category axis - the field used for grouping (e.g., region, month, product category)
• Value axis - the numeric field(s) to visualize (e.g., revenue, count, average)
• Aggregation - how values are summarized (sum, count, average, min, max)

Appearance

• Colors - customize the color palette for series and categories
• Labels - show or hide value labels on data points
• Legend - control the legend position and visibility
• Axis formatting - configure axis labels, scales, and number formatting

Multiple series

Charts can display multiple data series for comparison. For example, a bar chart might show revenue by region with separate bars for each product category, or a line chart might overlay multiple metrics over time.

Interaction

Chart widgets support:

• Hover tooltips - see exact values when hovering over data points
• Click selection - select chart elements to trigger cross-filtering with other widgets
