Time series

Time series visualization is the default and primary way to visualize time series data. It can render as a line, a path of dots, or a series of bars. It is versatile enough to display almost any time-series data. This public demo dashboard contains many different examples for how this visualization can be configured and styled.

When you hover your cursor over the visualization, Grafana can display tooltips. Choose how tooltips behave.

• Single - The hover tooltip shows only a single series, the one that you are hovering over on the visualization.
• All - The hover tooltip shows all series in the visualization. Grafana highlights the series that you are hovering over in bold in the series list in the tooltip.
• Hidden - Do not display the tooltip when you interact with the visualization.

Note: Use an override to hide individual series from the tooltip.

• List - Displays the legend as a list. This is a default display mode of the legend.
• Table - Displays the legend as a table.
• Hidden - Hides the legend.

Choose where to display the legend.

• Right - To the right of the graph.

Choose which of the standard calculations to show in the legend. You can have more than one.

• Graph time series as lines
• Graph time series as points
• Graph and color schemes
