How to add text data to visualisations

Hello,

 

I need to make a visualisation where I have  2 Y axis (one for a number data, for instance 'sales' for instance $ 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 for 2016, 2017 and 2018 and other for text data for instance 'credit risk' which could be -A, A and A+ 2016, 2017, 2018 in this example the company improved their credit rating every year). The X value would be years 2015, 2016, 2017. The idea is showing that sales are related to the credit rating of the stores. Thus -A is lower than A and A is lower than A+.

I know I can use visualisations with 2 Y axis number values but I am having trouble adding the text value. In my example above, the line of credit risk should go up.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Luis

Hi Luis,

 

Is the text data in accordance with the numeric data? If so, they are more like labels. How about adding them in the tooltip? I would suggest you create an idea here.
