Data Requirements

The timeline can be used to visualize any dataset that contains dates and descriptions. In order to make it work properly a data table with at least two columns is required:

  • One date hierarchy. A column with actual dates works best, but any combination of categorical columns are supported. This determines the timeline.
  • One description column. This determines what is written in the cards.

Optionally a third categorical column could be used to color the cards.

For detailed information on data requirements, the available settings, and an example of how to set up the visualization, read the mod's community article.
