Need help with Sankey Chart

Hi!

 

Working some with Sankey charts currently and cannot solve this, i have this example table to show you what my data looks like. I want to show the flow for each contact. Starting with the first by date.

 

Sankey only accepts Source and destination, so i know that i need to do something with my data.

Hi,

 

Your current data format might not be suitable for a Sankey diagram. Typically, Sankey diagrams require circular or hierarchical data. However, some newer options allow for simple tabular data. I recently used ChartExpo's Sankey diagram, which supports tabular data and worked well for me. You might want to try it.

 

To better understand data formatting across different industries, check out the following videos.
