Providing Data

This topic describes how to bind a Chart dashboard item to data in the Dashboard Designer.

The Dashboard Designer allows you to bind various dashboard items to data in a virtually uniform manner (see Binding Dashboard Items to Data for details).

The only difference is in the data sections that these dashboard items have.

Data Sections

 

 

 

The Chart dashboard item has the following data sections.

  1. Values

    The Values section contains data items whose values are used to calculate the Y-coordinates of data points.

  2. Arguments

    The Arguments section contains data items that provide values displayed along the X-axis of the chart.

  3. Series

    The Series section contains data items whose values are used to create chart series.
