# Line graph

**Category:** Control

**Version:** 1.0

**Last Updated:** November 27, 2025

**Author:** Any2Info

***

### 1. Description

The line graph allows visualization of a datatable (by using a dataclip) on a dashboard. The control allows basic graph related features like legends, data zooming and time based axis.

***

### 2. Mappings

This control supports the following data related properties.

| **Property** | **Note**                                                           |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **XItems**   | Effectively sets the content displayed on the X axis of the graph. |

Usability of this mapping depends heavily on the linked fields | | **YItems** | Effectively sets the content displayed on the Y axis of the graph, or more precisely the displayed lines.   Usability of this mapping depends heavily on the linked fields | | **YMin/YMax** | Sets the upper and lower bound of the displayed data. These mappings can be used to create a dynamic display of ranged data |

***

### 3. **Default chart**

By default a chart will show table header values on the y axis as lines, and the unique values (rows) on the X axis. The showed labels on the X axis by default will show the unique values (occurrence) for each row, in most cases this value is not display friendly, to solve this an extended mapping can be made.

### 4. **Time charts**

Whenever a graph is linked using a start and end date range it will automatically change to time chart functionality. This means the X Axis will start showing time based values.

When a true time axis, meaning time gaps should be displayed as such, you need to enable use of time axis (Properties > Axes > Use time axis). Als when enabled the displayed time labels can be formatted if needed

***

### 5. **Swapped charts**

By default a chart will show table header values on the y axis as lines, and the unique values (rows) on the X axis. In some cases the reverse is needed, meaning the dataset rows determine the lines on the y axis and the individual datapoints are based on the table headers

### 6. Events

| **Property**  | **Note**                                                                                         |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **On update** | Triggers when the graph updates its data as a result of an initial load or changed linked value. |

***

### 7. Changelog

| Version | Date              | Change                               |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://academy.any2info.com/any2info-academy/no-code-platform/app-studio/application-design/dashboard/controls-toolbox/graphs-and-indicators/line-graph.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
