Choose Visualization

You can display data with different widgets for different visualization formats such as charts, tables, or diagrams. The Widget Selector allows you to choose the most appropriate widget to effectively present and analyze your data.

  1. From the Repositories and views tab, click on the desired view or repository.

  2. From the Search tab, click the Widget Selector dropdown menu: the default widget is the Event List, which displays your search results in a tabular format. Not all data types are compatible with every visualization widget.

    The Widget Selector will grey out any incompatible widget options based on the structure and content of your current search results:
