Horizontal Bar Chart
The horizontal bar chart component creates an interactive visualization that shows categorical data and allows users to filter the map by clicking individual bars. This is useful for exploring relationships between categorical fields (like store types or product categories) and numeric measures (like sales or customer counts).
Example

Interaction
Click on individual bars to filter the map to show only data matching that category. Click again to remove the filter.
Configuration Options
Title
Text to be shown as the chart title. Used to label what the chart represents.
Subtitle
Additional descriptive text shown below the title. Can be used to provide context or instructions about interacting with the chart.
Data Source
The data source that provides data for the chart. This must be one of the data sources already added to the map.
Dimension Field
The categorical field that determines what each bar represents. This must be a categorical field (like strings or boolean values) from your selected data source. For example:
- Store type
- Product category
- State name
- True/False values
Measure Field
The numeric field that determines the length of each bar. This must be a numeric field from your selected data source. For example:
- Sales amount
- Customer count
- Number of orders
- Average transaction value
INFO
If you don't see a numeric field in your dataset listed as a measure, it is possible that it was mistakenly assigned a string data type. You can check this by looking in the data sources menu.
Aggregation Type
Determines how the measure field values are combined for each category. Available options:
- Minimum: Shows the smallest value
- Maximum: Shows the largest value
- Sum: Adds up all values
- Average: Takes the mean of all values
- Count: Shows the number of records
TIP
The horizontal bar chart is limited to showing the top 10 aggregated values. Values are always shown in descending order.
