Line chart

Back to Chart types.

Line charts are best for showing trends over time or across ordered categories, and for comparing multiple series. For a guided maker page with templates, FAQs, and export options, see the line chart maker.

Data format

• Recommended: dataset.dimensions + dataset.source
• Typical shape: first column is the category (often time), remaining columns are numeric series

Example dimensions:

• ['date', 'sales', 'profit']

Import and edit support

• Import: ✅ (CSV / Excel / Paste / Google Sheets)
• Edit: ✅ (table editor)

Customize highlights

• Series: smooth/step line, line style, area fill, symbols, labels
• Axes: axis type, ticks/labels, split lines (when using cartesian axes)
• Legend / Title: multi-series labeling and chart heading

Tips

• Use consistent time granularity (day/week/month) for clean trends.
• If the chart looks noisy, try smoothing or aggregating your data.
