Configure Chart view settings
You can configure a chart view to display search results as a multi-dimensional chart with various aggregation operations and drilldown types.
There are three configuration tabs available in the Chart view:
Using the Search component chart view, you cannot visualize audit data. Instead, use the Chart component.
Data
On the Data tab, you can configure the source data populating the chart.
To configure the source data:
-
Set the Principal dimension parameters:
Field Type Description Value Mandatory/Optional Dimension Drop-down list Selects the data that feeds the chart List of possible dimensions Mandatory Include missing values Toggle switch If enabled, includes missing values in the chart Enabled/Disabled Optional Top Drop-down list Filters out a subset of the entire data results Top all / Top 5 / Top 10 / Top 25 / Top 50 / Top 250 / Top 500 Mandatory (for non-time dimensions) Interval Drop-down list Sets the interval period to represent time dimensions Hour / Day / Month / Year Mandatory (for time dimensions only) -
(Optional) Add a second dimension: in the Group by section, set the secondary dimension parameters in the same manner as the main dimension.
-
To add an aggregation, in the Options section, set the following parameters:
Field Type Description Value Mandatory/Optional Aggregation type Drop-down list Selects the aggregation type to apply Count / Average / Sum / Min /Max Mandatory Aggregation member Drop-down list Defines the aggregation member Asset.DrmComplexity / FileSize / AverageRating Mandatory (not required for Count aggregation type) Sorting Drop-down list Sorts the results alphabetically or metrically Alphabetical/Metric Mandatory Order Drop-down list Sorts the results in ascending or descending order Ascending/Descending Mandatory
