Dynamic Charts

Is there a way how the charts in a dashboard can be updated automatically as one add new rows to a database?

Thank you.

Hi yes all the charts update dynamically from the data they are charting so if you are counting rows in a sheet with your graph then when you add more rows they will update (you have to do a manual refresh on the dashboard or set it to auto-refresh every few minutes).

I don't think that answers the question.

If I have a column with numbers

23

45

27

111

154

and add a new row,

76

the chart was setup for 5 rows and now should be 6.

This might be possible with Reports, but with the recent delays in Reporting, I can not test to be sure.

It (my interpretation of the OP's question) is possible with Reports.

Thanks for asking, this led me to a solution I had missed before.

Hi, the bit I missed was using CountIFs to capture all row data then chart from that. That way all row data gets used by the Charts.
