Value Automatically Added as Count

I am trying to add values to a chart. However, it is not showing the numeric value, it is showing the count. I just want to show the value. How do I do that?

@jmiridium,

 

Add to MFelix, if you column in text format, then please change the column type to value.

It is not a text value

On your visual in the values select the option don't summatize to the field you want to show the values.

Hi @jmiridium,

Check if the column format us number or text, normally when by default the summarize valur is count it's because it's a text column or similar.
