Custom date chart aggregation

Overview

This chart displays numerical values in a timeline based on a date other than the Eventdate, which indicates the moment the event was received by Devo.

What data do I need for this widget?

The option to create this chart will be disabled unless your query groups events containing at least one numerical column. Furthermore, the grouping must be without a temporal option (no time-based grouping) and contain a timestamp column in order to have suitable data to complete de chart.

Creating a custom date chart aggregation

Working with chart aggregations

Hover over a point of the chart to see a tooltip with all the values.

Click the sliders and dropdown at the top of the chart to operate with the following options:

  • Null to zeros: when this option is activated, the chart will not show graphical representation for the points with zero values and the connections to them. 

  • Accumulate: activating this option will stack all the values of each variable over time. This way the last value will be the sum of all the previous values.

  • Limit Series: activating or deactivating this option makes the diagram show only the most significant values or all of them.

  • Period: this option will show the results over the selected period of time. The period will be the latest available in the specified time range.
