Creating a box plot

You can create a box plot on the sheet you are editing.

Do the following:

  1. From the assets panel, drag an empty box plot to the sheet.
  2. Add the first dimension.

    This is the inner dimension, which defines a box.

  3. Add a second dimension.

    This is the outer dimension, which defines the boxes shown on the dimension axis.

  4. Click Add measure and create a measure from a field. The measure does not have to contain an aggregation.

You can add dimensions and measures to the chart in different ways:

From one or more data fields. (The Fields section is not available in a published app.) Creating a visualization from fields
From master items. Creating a visualization using master items
From the properties panel.
