# Chart Component

UDesignerClassic Designer

Charts are a great way to display data sets in your [application](/v1/docs/introduction-to-unqork-applications). Using the **Chart component**, you can add and configure different types of charts on your dashboard, letting your end-user visualize your data in a meaningful way.

Below are some common examples of when to use the Chart component:

- To display a scatter plot to track the number of sales for each sales agent in your department.
- To display a pie chart to show the percentages of end-user submission.
- To display a bar graph that shows product consumption by demographic.

## About the Configuration Window

> [!TIP]
> To learn more about general component settings and those that display when a component is associated with Data Models, view our [General Component Settings](/v1/docs/general-component-settings) article.

### Display Panel

#### Field Text

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Label Text** | Label Text conveys what the input component is and what information it displays. Enter the purpose of the corresponding component or field. User-friendly labels make your module more accessible. Keep labels short and descriptive (a word or two) using title case. For longer entries, use sentence case. |

#### Formatting

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Chart Title** | The title that displays above your chart in Express View. |
| **Chart Subtitle** | The subtitle that displays below the chart title in Express View. |
| **Chart Height (in px)** | Adjusts the height (in pixels) of the frame that contains your chart in Express View. As you adjust the height of your chart box, the chart resizes accordingly. |

### Data Panel

#### Series Configuration

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Stack Series** | Overlays multiple data sets in your chart, preventing multiple data inputs from overlapping in your application. > [!NOTE] > If only a single data input exists, this setting has no effect. |

#### Inputs & Event Outputs

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Inputs** | Use this section to input and organize the data that your chart must display. To access the Inputs settings, select **Edit**. \| Setting \| Description \| \| --- \| --- \| \| **ID** \| In this field, enter the Property ID of your input data. > [!NOTE] > All data you reference in your input must come from the same array as the data ID. When you input additional data, it creates a separate chart. \| \| **Label** \| In this field, enter the value for what you're counting. For example, if your chart displays a count of numbers, enter `Number`. If you're displaying a percentage of businesses involved in an industry, enter `Businesses`. \| \| **Chart Type** \| This field lets you set the chart type to display your data. Below are the available chart types: - **Column**: Effective for comparison of at least one data point. Column charts show data as a rectangle with the height of the rectangle proportional to the values plotted. Typically, a column chart plots the variable value vertically and the fixed dimension horizontally. - **Bar**: Effective for comparison of at least one data point. Bar charts show data as a bar with the height of the bar proportional to the values plotted. Typically, a bar chart plots the variable value horizontally and the fixed dimension vertically. - **Pie**: A pie chart is a circular-type chart, divided into slices to show numeric proportion. In a pie chart, the arc length of each slice relates to the quantity the slice represents. When used in conjunction with the Inner Size setting, you can configure your pie chart into a doughnut chart. - **Line**: A line chart displays information as a series of data points connected by straight line segments. These charts are typically used to show information that changes over time. - **Spline**: A spline chart is a line chart that uses curves instead of straight lines. These charts are typically used to emphasize data trends over time. - **Scatter**: A scatter chart uses dots to represent values for two different variables. The position of each dot in the horizontal and vertical axis displays values for the data point. You'll typically use these charts to show relationships between variables. - **Funnel**: These charts typically display stages in a sales process, and the amount of potential revenue for each stage. - **Bubble**: Bubble charts are used to determine if at least three numerical values are related or share some pattern. These charts can also display trends over time or compare categorical variables. - **Heatmap**: These charts are specialized, using colors to represent data values in a table. They are most helpful when used with large and complex data sets. \| \| **Categories** \| In this field, enter the data categories you want displayed on your chart. Enter only the key of your data's key/value pairs for each category. For example, let's say your application has three insurance provider options. You want to show the end-user how popular each insurance provider is to help guide their choice. Your insurance provider data all share the data key of **Provider**. So, in the **Categories** field, you'll enter `Provider`. \| \| **Values** \| Use this field to display the values for each category on your chart. Enter only the key of your data's key/value pairs for each category value. \| \| **Colors** \| Manipulates the color of an input category if the input data array contains colors. Your color data can be in word or HEX form. \| \| **Size** \| This setting expands the size of your chart, in pixels. \| \| **Inner Size** \| Adds an inner-hole to make your pie chart into a doughnut chart. This setting only applies to pie charts. \| |

## Adding a Chart Component

To expand on the example from earlier, say you want to build an application that shows the popularity of insurance providers to clients. You can use a Chart component to display this data in a pie chart. The Chart component can only display data, so you must first determine the number of membership submissions for each insurance provider for the chart to display correctly.

> [!NOTE]
> These instructions assume that you have an open module saved with a title.

### Configure the Data Table Component

Begin by creating a data set that contains customer insurance enrollment data.

1. In the Module Builder, drag and drop a **Data Table** component onto your canvas.
2. In the Property ID and Canvas Label Text fields, enter `dtUserSubmission Data`.
3. In the **Inputs** data table, enter the following:

## Structure of a Chart Component's Data

The Chart component uses input Property IDs to display array data.

Charts are a great way to display data sets in your [application](/v1/docs/introduction-to-unqork-applications). Using the **Chart component**, you can add and configure different types of charts on your dashboard, letting your end-user visualize your data in a meaningful way.

Below are some common examples of when to use the Chart component:

- To display a scatter plot to track the number of sales for each sales agent in your department.
- To display a pie chart to show the percentages of end-user submission.

[![A static image dispaying the Chart component's Chart tab settings.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/AppBuild_Chart_03_thumb_0_0.jpg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A06Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A06Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=GViXGSWc1ik5HQzzDQOmOWnmedwKoJRDve1M3osewIw%3D)](https://cdn.us.document360.io/15548f06-2fba-434c-b0c1-5df88317dbd7/Images/Documentation/AppBuild%20Chart%2003.jpg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T03%3A51%3A06Z&se=2026-11-09T04%3A51%3A06Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=GViXGSWc1ik5HQzzDQOmOWnmedwKoJRDve1M3osewIw%3D)

| **Setting** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Label** | A Label indicates the purpose of the corresponding field or component. For input components, the Label tells the end-user how to interact with the field. For non-input components, the Label is not end-user facing, and only appears in the Module Builder. User-friendly Labels make your module more accessible. Keep Labels short and descriptive (a word or two) using title case. For longer entries, use sentence case. |
| **Property Name** | A Property Name is the unique field ID used by Unqork to track and link components in your module. The Property Name is how the software identifies your component. Using Property Names lets you link components, creating logic-based configurations and API (application programming interface) calls. Property Names must use camel case (stylized as camelCase) without spaces or punctuation. |
| **Chart Title** | The title that displays above your chart in Express View. |
| **Chart Subtitle** | The subtitle that displays below your chart title in Express View. |
| **Chart Height** | Adjusts the height (in pixels) of the frame that contains your chart. As you adjust the height of your chart box, the chart resizes accordingly. |

#### Series Configuration

| **Setting** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Stack Series** | Overlays multiple data sets in your graph. This setting prevents multiple data inputs from overlapping in your application. > [!NOTE] > If only a single data input exists, this setting has no effect. |
| **Inputs** | Use this section to input and organize the data that your chart must display. |
| **ID** | In this field, enter the Property ID of your input data. > [!NOTE] > All data you reference in your input must come from the same array as the data ID. When you input additional data, it creates a separate chart. |
| **Label** | In this field, enter the value for what you're counting. For example, if your graph displays a count of numbers, enter `Number`. If you're displaying a percentage of businesses involved in an industry, enter `Businesses`. |
| **Chart Type** | This field lets you set the chart type to display your data. Below are the available chart types: - **Column**: Effective for comparison of at least one data point. Column charts show data as a rectangle with the height of the rectangle proportional to the values plotted. Typically, a column chart plots the variable value vertically and the fixed dimension horizontally. - **Bar**: Effective for comparison of at least one data point. Bar charts show data as a bar with the height of the bar proportional to the values plotted. Typically, a bar chart plots the variable value horizontally and the fixed dimension vertically. - **Pie**: A pie chart is a circular-type chart, divided into slices to show numeric proportion. In a pie chart, the arc length of each slice relates to the quantity the slice represents. When used in conjunction with the Inner Size setting, you can configure your pie chart into a doughnut chart. - **Line**: A line chart displays information as a series of data points connected by straight line segments. These charts are typically used to show information that changes over time. - **Spline**: A spline chart is a line chart that uses curves instead of straight lines. These charts are typically used to emphasize data trends over time. - **Scatter**: A scatter chart uses dots to represent values for two different variables. The position of each dot in the horizontal and vertical axis displays values for the data point. You'll typically use these charts to show relationships between variables. - **Funnel**: These charts typically display stages in a sales process, and the amount of potential revenue for each stage. - **Bubble**: Bubble charts are used to determine if at least three numerical values are related or share some pattern. These charts can also display trends over time or compare categorical variables. - **Heatmap**: These charts are specialized, using colors to represent data values in a table. They are most helpful when used with large and complex data sets. |
| **Categories** | In this field, enter the data categories you want displayed on your chart. Enter only the key of your data's key/value pairs for each category. For example, let's say your application has three insurance provider options. You want to show the end-user how popular each insurance provider is to help guide their choice. Your insurance provider data all share the data key of Provider. So, in the **Categories** field, you'll enter `Provider`. |
| **Values** | Use this field to display the values for each category on your chart. Enter only the key of your data's key/value pairs for each category value. |
| **Colors** | Manipulates the color of an input category if the input data array contains colors. Your color data can be in word or HEX form. |
| **Size** | This setting expands the size of your chart, in pixels. |
| **Inner Size** | Adds an inner-hole to make your pie chart into a doughnut chart. This setting only applies to pie charts. |
| **Event Output** | Lets the end-user select a category on your chart's user interface. You can then output the selected category to a Property ID. |
| **ID** | The Property ID you use to output your Filter Category. For example, if you want to store the selected Filter Category in a [Hidden](/v1/docs/hidden-component) component named **idOutput**, enter `idOutput`. |
| **Filter Category** | Enter the input category value displayed on your chart. For example, if your Input category is provider, enter `provider`. |

#### Chart Theme

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Chart Theme** | Sets the theme or color scheme of your chart. |

#### Month Format

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Month Format** | Changes the month format of date values on your chart. |

#### Additional Settings

| **Setting** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Drilldown** | Narrows down to any nested categories. |
| **Aggregation** | Aggregates a variable in the tracking cascading status. |
| **Top** | Returns only the top records. |
| **Print Chart, Download CSV, XLS, and PDF Label** | Customizes the label of the download options in the chart drop-down menu. |
| **Field Tags** | Assign components one-word labels to help organize, identify, and group the components in your application. Consider an example from the [API Specification Snippet](/v1/docs/api-specification-snippet): Field Tags are applied to Hidden components in the **panelRequest** and **panelResponse** **P****anel** components. The Field Tags identify the data type of parameters included in the API request and response. The [API Docs Dashboard tool](/v1/docs/api-docs-dashboard-tool) populates with information about each parameter’s data type, identified by the Field Tag. Field Tags act as a type of Property ID group and let you group components for configuration purposes. Field Tags let you target two or more components using a simple logic component. For example, add the Field Tag tagForDecision to multiple components in your module. Open the Inputs table of a Decisions component and reference the tagForDecision Field Tag as the input of the Decisions component. The output of the Decisions component then affects all components with the tagForDecision Field Tag. Save your Field Tags by pressing Enter (Return) or adding a comma after each entry. |
| **Comment** | Use this field to keep your teammates informed about what this Chart component does. |

## Adding a Chart Component

To expand on the example from earlier, say you want to build an application that shows the popularity of insurance providers to clients. You can use a Chart component to display this data in a pie chart. The Chart component can only display data, so you must first determine the number of membership submissions for each insurance provider for the chart to display correctly.

> [!NOTE]
> These instructions assume that you have an open module saved with a title.

### What You Need

For this configuration, you need the following components:

- 1 [Data Table](/v1/docs/data-table-component) component
- 1 [Hidden](/v1/docs/hidden-component) component
- 1 **Chart** component
- 1 [Initializer](/v1/docs/initializer-component) component
- 1 [Data Workflow](/v1/docs/data-workflow-component) component

To set up your Data Workflow, you need:

- [Input](/v1/docs/input-operator) operator
- [Pick](/v1/docs/pick-operator) operator
- [Aggregate](/v1/docs/aggregate-operator) operator
- [Output](/v1/docs/output-operator) operator

### Configure the Data Table Component

Begin by creating a data set that contains customer insurance enrollment data.

1. In the Module Builder, drag and drop a **Data Table** component onto your canvas.
2. In the Property ID and Canvas Label Text fields, enter `dtUserSubmission Data`.
3. To the left of the component's configuration window, click **D****ata**.
4. In the data table, enter the following:

|  | A | B |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **1** | submission | provider |
| **2** | 1 | Aetna |
| **3** | 2 | Cigna |
| **4** | 3 | BCBS |
| **5** | 4 | Kaiser |
| **6** | 5 | UHC |
| **7** | 6 | Aetna |
| **8** | 7 | Cigna |
| **9** | 8 | BCBS |
| **10** | 9 | Kaiser |
| **11** | 10 | UHC |

5. Click **Save & Close**.

### Configure the Hidden Component

This Hidden component stores your provider popularity data. Your Chart component references this data to display to the end-user.

1. Drag and drop a **Hidden** component onto the canvas, placing it below your **dtUserSubmissionData** **Data Table** component.
2. In the Property ID and Canvas Label Text fields, enter `providerCount`.
3. Click **Save & Close**.

### Configure the Data Workflow Component

Chart components cannot make advanced calculations, so you'll configure a Data Workflow component to aggregate the data you want to display to the end-user.

1. Drag and drop a **D****ata Workflow** component onto the canvas, placing it between the **dtUserSubmissionData** **Data Table** and **providerCount** **Hidden** components.
2. In the **Canvas Label Text** and **Property Name** fields, enter `dwfProviderCount`.

End-users, also known as Express Users, are the individuals accessing an application through Express View. In most cases, end-users are the customers using the product.

Also known as Record Data. Submission data consists of information saved by Unqork components. View submission data by using the angular command, or in Record Collections.

Express View is how your end-user views your application. Express View also lets you preview your applications to test your configuration and view the styling. This is also the view your end-users will see when interacting with your application. After configuring a module, click Preview in the Module Builder to interact with the module in Express View.

A Property ID is the unique field ID used by Unqork to track and link components in your module.

Canvas Label Text indicates the purpose of the corresponding field or component. For non-input components, the Canvas Label Text isn't end-user facing, and only appears in the .

Label Text conveys what the input component is and what information it displays. Enter the purpose of the corresponding component or field.

Deteremines how the component triggers.

The component fires when the page or called module loads without an existing submission ID. Dashboards and remote execute modules are great uses for this trigger.

Enter outputs components and actions you want the component to perform.
