Set Constant Values in Gauge Charts

Use a constant value (ie. a number) to set values in the Gauge chart. This works particularly well if you have a target for a specific KPI (i.e., profit) and you want to measure your progress against this value.


How Do I Access the Properties Panel?

Select any visualization in a Data App and click Properties on the toolbar. Alternatively, click the Properties button on the top right of your screen.

Where Do I Set Values?

Scroll to to the Configuration section, there are four properties your could set:

  1. Value - metric from your data (i.e. sum of Profit)
  2. Target - value of your goal (i.e. profit you desire)
  3. Min - minimum value of the chart (left value)
  4. Max - maximum value of the chart (right value)

First use the left dropdown and select the Constant option. Then use the text box to enter a value.
