Secondary Y axis not working

Good morning,

 

I am trying to build a simple line graph that shows two y axis based on different scale. However, when I try to add the values on the secondary values (note: others may see Y2 instead of secondary values), it does not let me drag the values into it. Please, any help would be much appreciated

 

Thanks in advance for your time.

Hi @mtrussardi ,

 

Only one value can be added to the "column value" field. You need to add other values in the "line value" field

Hi, good morning, were you able to get the secondary Y-axis to work?

I am having the same issue and this is for a line chart, which is @mtrussardi 's original question.  The solution you proposed is for a combo chart, which is a different visual.
