Area chart

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft Fabric ✅ Azure Data Explorer ✅ Azure Monitor ✅ Microsoft Sentinel

The area chart visual shows a time-series relationship. The first column of the query should be numeric and is used as the x-axis. Other numeric columns are the y-axes. Unlike line charts, area charts also visually represent volume. Area charts are ideal for indicating the change among different datasets.

Note

This visualization can only be used in the context of the render operator.
