Quick BI:Add a Dashboard Chart

Last Updated:Mar 06, 2026

XiaoQ Reports lets you add charts from a dashboard while editing a report. This topic describes how to add a chart during this process.

Prerequisites

You have created a XiaoQ Report.

Scenarios

When editing a XiaoQ Report, you can add a chart directly from an existing dashboard. This saves you from having to recreate the chart if it already contains relevant data.

Limits

You cannot add metric decomposition trees, metric relationship graphs, or custom components.

Procedure

  1. In the XiaoQ Report editor, click Add chart.

  2. You can select a work and check the card.

    1. You can select charts from dashboards in My favorites, Recently accessed, Shared with me, or I created. image You can also use the search function to quickly locate the target dashboard.

    2. You can manually select filter values before adding a chart.

      For example, to add a detail table with the status “Unprocessed” to the report, use the query control to filter the data. Then click Query and select the relevant chart.

      Note

      When you update data, time-based and non-time-based filter conditions behave differently:

      • During data updates, time-based filter conditions are reset to ensure the latest data is displayed, and any manually selected values are cleared. If a default value is set for the time filter control, the control reverts to that default value.

      • Non-time-based filter conditions remain unchanged during data updates. They are not affected by changes to the default values of the original chart’s filters.

  3. Click OK. In the confirmation dialog box, click OK again.

    Note
    • A report can contain a maximum of 20 dashboard chart components.

    • After you add a chart, its content updates automatically when the source dashboard is updated. You can also manually detach the chart from its source within the report. After a chart is detached, updates to the source dashboard no longer affect the chart. The chart's styling automatically adjusts to match the layout and style of the report.
