Why aren't all data points showing in my line chart?
Last updated: July 23, 2025
Line charts have a default limit of 100 categories for performance reasons. If your data contains more than 100 unique date values, some dates may not appear in the visualization.
Increasing the date range display
To show more dates in your line chart:
Open the chart settings
Locate the "Max Categories" field
Increase the value to accommodate your desired date range
Troubleshooting inconsistent date displays
If you notice different charts showing varying amounts of dates despite using the same date column:
Open the debugger panel for each chart
Compare the number of query results returned
Adjust the Max Categories setting accordingly for charts returning more data points
Note: Setting very high Max Categories values may impact dashboard performance. Consider balancing between data granularity and loading speed.
