Build Line Charts in Clappia

Open your app that needs charts to be configured. Go to Design App > Analytics > Live Dashboard tab. By default, there will already be some charts configured as examples. You can delete them if you wish. To add a new line chart, click on ‘Add chart’.

Configure Chart

After selecting a line chart from the chart selection panel, you can configure the chart in right panel.

Chart Options

Following are the details of each field in the right panel:

Chart title

Title of the chart. This can be empty.

X-Axis label

Label for x-axis of chart. This can be empty.

Y-Axis label

Label for y-axis of chart. This can be empty.

Aggregation

Chart data values can be aggregation of some field/module values or simply a count of submissions. This field is required.

Supported aggregation functions are:

• COUNT
• SUM
• AVERAGE
• MINIMUM
• MAX

COUNT returns number of submissions. Other functions require an operand which can be one of the app fields. For more details, refer to the example at the end.

X-Axis dimension

Data is grouped by the values of this field. This can be one of the app fields, status, submission creation time, submission modification time. This field is required. For more details, refer to the example at the end.

This chart type also segregates data periodically into daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly (DWMY) intervals. This functionality is available only when a date field is selected as the X-Axis dimension. You can use either a custom date field from your app or the default "Created At" variable, which captures the submission creation date.

Additional Dimension

Data can be further categorised by providing this dimension. This can be one of the app fields, status, submission creation time, submission modification time. This field is optional. For more details, refer to the example at the end.

Example

The configuration for a line chart is the same as the configuration for a bar graph. Refer to example in bar graph.
