The Create Report and Dashboard capability enables you to use natural-language prompts to create reports and dashboards. The AI interprets the reporting requirement;
Identifies the relevant data and visualization
Generates the requested report
Creates a dashboard using the selected chart(s)
The generated report and dashboard can be previewed and refined before saving.

Chart Type
Selecting the right chart type is crucial for effective data visualization. Here's guidance on when to use each type:
Chart Type | Description |
|---|---|
Bar Chart | Best for comparing values across categories. Use for status breakdowns, priority distributions, team comparisons. |
Line Chart | Ideal for showing trends over time. Use for incident volumes by week/month, resolution time trends. |
Pie Chart | Shows composition and proportions. Use for percentage breakdowns of a single metric (example, % of tickets by status). |
Area Chart | Shows cumulative trends. Use for stacked data over time (example, workload by team over months). |
Number | Displays a single key metric. Use for KPIs like "Total Incidents" or "Average Resolution Time." |
Table | Shows detailed data in rows and columns. Use when specific values or precise numbers are more important than visual patterns. |
