Hello,
Client is asking for a trendline, however, I cannot find the trendline on any visualizations. Was hoping to use it on a Clustered Column Chart, however, it is not an option. I tried a Line Chart and Area Chart also, however, the Trendline was still not an option.
Here is my chart ...
Here is the formula I am using for Values ...
But no option to choose Trendline here (Not there when I change visualization to Line or Area chart either)
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
To add Tendline I had to do the following ...
I had to change the Axis from YearMonth_Sort to Service_Date_Month.
I had to change the Legend from Service_Date > Year to Service_Date_Year.
To add Trendline > Click on Magnifying glass icon (Next to paintbrush) > then add a Trendline
Under Paintbrush > X axis > = Continuous

I changed the x-axis to Categorical, however, there is still not Trendline. Any advice?
@jonnyA , when you date on a line visual and continuous axis, that should be trend line
Or are looking for sparkline
