Field Summary Chart

The Field Summary chart is a single query metric, consisting of a single query and a chosen field. Use this chart to present the calculated outcome (average, count, count true, count false, sum) on the values of the chosen field across the data-set given by the query. You can choose to display data either as a chart or as a timeline chart. You can use the timeline chart to track the values of a field over time.
