Visualizations

Visualizations are used to present the data that is loaded into the app. The selections you make in the app are reflected in all associated visualizations. If you’re new to creating visualizations, review choosing the right visualization.

This section summaries the compatibility of these visualizations across embedding frameworks. For support for Insight Advisor, review Insight Advisor compatibility.
