Multidimensional Charts

You can bring your reports to life with powerful, customizable charts and visualizations. Once you’ve added your data type, selected relevant metrics, and defined your dimensions, explore a range of intuitive chart configuration options to tailor your report. Whether you're highlighting trends, comparing categories, or showcasing performance, these visual tools make your insights clearer and more impactful.

Multi-Dimensional Charts in Insights Studio help transform report data into interactive visualizations that make trends, comparisons, and performance insights easier to understand.

After selecting a data source, metrics, and dimensions, you can configure charts to:

• Compare performance across campaigns, channels, or audiences

• Visualize trends over time

• Highlight relationships between dimensions and metrics

• Monitor KPIs with flexible layouts and display options

• Apply filters, sorting, and conditional formatting for clearer analysis

Line charts support two mutually exclusive modes: Multi-Metric Mode Multiple metrics can be added to Y-Axis 1 All metrics must share the same scale or format Secondary axis is unavailable Dual-Axis Mode One metric on Y-Axis 1 One metric on Y-Axis 2 Useful when metrics use different scales Example: Emails Sent on Y-Axis 1 Open Rate on Y-Axis 2

Column Chart

Column Chart

Column charts display vertical bars and are ideal for comparing values across categories.

Supported Features

• Stacked and side-by-side display modes

Bar Chart

Horizontal Bar Chart

Horizontal bar charts are optimized for comparing categories with long labels or multiple dimensions.

Supported Features

• Up to 3 dimensions on the Y-Axis

• Primary metric on X-Axis 1

• Optional secondary metric on X-Axis 2

• Color By Dimension support

• Stacked and side-by-side display modes

Multi-Dimensional Behavior Horizontal Bar charts are one of the two chart types that support multiple dimensions. Example: Axis Example X-Axis 1 Emails Sent Y-Axis Primary Dimension Campaign Name Y-Axis Secondary Dimension Channel Name

Pie and Donut Charts

Pie and Donut Charts

Pie and Donut charts visualize proportional relationships.
