Templated visuals

The quickest way to visualize your data.

Once you've created a visual cell, templated visuals are the quickest way to start constructing a visual and exploring your data.

Create a templated visual

  • Select the data source - Pick the source you want to build your visual from the dropdown in the design panel on the right. This can be:

    • A view from a catalog

    • A table from a database

    • Another cell on the canvas

    You can also join additional tables or cells using low-code joins.

  • Choose columns - Drag columns from the sidebar into the available slots for your chosen template.

    Once placed, you can configure each column using the ellipses (...) menu:

    • Logic tab – Choose how the data is calculated (e.g., Total, Average, Count distinct) - see Logic page for full details.

    • Display tab – Control how the values appear in the chart (e.g., number formats, date styles, text case). See Display page for full details.

  • Filter the data — read more about how to filter the data displayed in your visual here.

  • Format the visual — read more about formatting visuals here.

Tip: Clicking on an axis of your visual will sort the data by that value
