Given below is a brief description of the attribute used to create a simple spark column chart:

Attribute Name Description

value

It is used to show the numerical value for a data plot on the spark column chart, e.g. 783000. This attribute belongs to the data object, which in turn belongs to the dataset object.

There! You have now seen how you can create a simple spark column chart.
