The steps

  1. 1Switch the report to Edit. Nothing moves; the tools appear. No toggle? Ask a workspace admin for Editor access.
  2. 2Way 1: suggested charts, ranked from your own columns. Click one and it is added, already built.
  3. 3Way 2: ask the assistant for it, such as "show revenue by month", or let Auto Report draft the whole page.
  4. 4Way 3: press + Visual, choose the shape, then choose which fields go where.
  5. 5Change the chart type on the Chart tab without rebuilding. There are 72+ to choose from.
  6. 6Every setting lives in four tabs: Data, Chart, Format and Block.
  7. 7Your work saves as you go. Publish when it is ready; until then only the workspace can open it.
