Creating a graph

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4
Hello All,
Is it possible to create a graph inside PowerApps using the data I have in the app without using an outside source like SharePoint?
I can’t seem to figure out how to take a drop down I have selected and translate it into the graph.

    You can create a graph using a local collection as the data source.  All you need is a set of records that have a name for each row and a value to be graphed. I'm not sure what you have in your dropbox.  Are you trying to graph all the entries in a drop box? or all the tiems that a particular value was selected?

    The items at a particular set value.

    A single item that is selected in the drop down box.

    A graph of a single item doesn't make much sense.  If its a bar graph there would be one rectangle of a specific height to denote the value of the item.  But how is that useful? I guess I don't understand what you are trying to accomplish.

    Hi @Harrj148 ,

    Could you tell me what graph do you want to create?

    If you do not create connection with data source, you could also use variable or collection in PowerApps as datasource.

    What's more, you could also enter data in the control's property to set its data source.

    For example, I insert a Column chart.

    Set the Column chart's Items:

    Table({id:1,number:10},{id:2,number:20},{id:3,number:30})611_LI.jpg

    Then the chart can display the data that you entered, not from outside datasource.
