Visualization Extension Overview

1. Overview

In different business scenarios, using existing BI charts may not meet all data analysis needs, so there are often requirements for special charts. In addition to building special charts through the custom chart function within Guandata BI, we also support providing ready-to-use visualization plugins in the application marketplace, such as dumbbell charts, calendar charts, forecast curve charts, butterfly charts, and many other types. Users only need to search and download their preferred visualization application plugins in the application marketplace, and install them into BI with one click to help users achieve data visualization acceleration more conveniently.

Guandata BI's visualization extension function provides users with great flexibility and extensibility, allowing users to customize data display methods according to their own needs and achieve more personalized data analysis. This chapter will specifically describe the configuration process of visualization extensions.
