Create Line chart
Everything you need to know to create the chart you want.
The line chart is represented by a series of datapoints connected with a straight line. Line charts are most often used to visualize data that changes over time.
Data
Line chart supports Random, Table and JSON data sources. Let's look at each data source in detail
Random data
