You can also apply and edit filters, chart properties, sorts, add a chart name and descripti on, and view and manipulate the data table for the chart. Analyzer is only accessible by users with Admin, Privileged, or Editor system roles OR a custom role with the Edit Cards grant enabled. For more information about default security roles, see [Managing Roles](/s/article/360043438973 "Security Role Reference"). For a high-level overview of the Analyzer, see [Analyzer Overview](/s/article/360043428673 "Analyzer Overview"). *** ### Analyzer Interface The following screenshot shows the Analyzer as it might appear for a typical Stacked Bar chart. New_Analyzer_View.png You can learn more about these components in the following table:

Name

Description

Data pane

Provides access to data configuration options for the chart, including the following:

  • DataSet picker . Lets you change the DataSet powering this chart.

  • Column filter . Lets you quickly locate specific columns (dimensions and measures) in the DataSet to use in this chart. If you have created calculated columns for this chart using Beast Mode, you can use the filter to find those columns also.

  • Available columns . Shows the columns from this DataSet that you can apply to your chart. These are divided into Measures (columns that contain items with a "value" data type) and Dimensions (columns that contain items with "string," "date," and "date-time" data types). If you have created calculated columns for this chart using Beast Mode, those columns appear here. You apply columns to your chart by dragging and dropping them from this area into the column fields above the chart preview area.

    If the column names are too long to fit, you can expand the pane by clicking and dragging on the border of the right side of the pane.

    For more information about data types, see Applying DataSet Columns to Your Chart .

Name & Description fields

Lets you change the name/description of the Visualization card that contains this chart (the name of the powering DataSet is used by default). This is the name and description that appears at the top of the Visualization card in the page(s). For more information about naming a Visualization card, see Editing the Name or Description of a Visualization Card .

Filter & Sort pane Lets you apply filters to filter the data in columns in your chart. For more information, see Sorting the Data in Your Chart .
Toolbar

Provides access to buttons that let you show or hide various tools in the Analyzer interface. You can show or hide the Toolbar itself using the ^ button near the top center of the Analyzer window.

The buttons in the Toolbar include all of the following:

For example, for a standard vertical Bar chart, X Axis and Y Axis fields would appear. You would drag a value column into the Y Axis field and a category column into the X Axis field. Your chart preview would then update to show how the chart would look with these columns applied. For more information, see Applying DataSet Columns to Your Chart .
