Chart Rift is an additional Rift configuration that applies specifically to a graph chart. While the main Rift shapes how the dataset appears in a table view, Chart Rift shapes how the data is prepared for the graph.

Why a separate Rift?

A single dataset might power both a table and a graph on the same board. The table might need to show individual rows, while the graph needs data grouped by month. Chart Rift lets you configure the graph’s data shaping independently without affecting the table.

What you can configure

Chart Rift supports the same operations as the main Rift:
  • Group by — group rows by columns to create the axis categories or time series.
  • Aggregate — apply sum, average, count, and other functions to numeric columns.
  • Filter — narrow the data for the graph.
  • Sort — control the order of data points.
  • Hide columns — exclude columns not needed by the graph.
  • Row limit — cap the number of data points.

Example

Suppose your dataset returns daily sales by product:
dateproductamount
2025-01-01Widget A100
2025-01-01Widget B150
2025-01-02Widget A120
The main Rift could be left unmodified so the table shows all rows. The Chart Rift could group by date and sum amount to feed a line chart showing total daily sales.
