When you add a query from the Add menu of the Dashboards or Notebooks app, you can choose how to visualize the results. Dynatrace offers several visualization types for your dashboard tiles and notebook sections.

Select a visualization

After you run a query or code, you can select a visualization.

  • In Notebooks, the Visualization section displays all visualization types.
  • In Dashboards, the configuration panel includes a separate Visual tab that's active after you select Run.

To specify the visualization type, select it. The display is immediately updated so you can see what it will look like. You can try different visualizations to find the best one for what you want to display.

  • If you select a visualization that's unsuitable for your query, a message will ask you to select a different visualization or modify your query. For visualization details, tips, and examples, see the visualization-specific documentation.
  • To configure visualization options, expand the sections under the Visualization section.
  • If you close the configuration panel, you can select (in Dashboards) or Options (in Notebooks) to display it again and make additional configuration changes.
