Scatter charts plot individual data points using two measures as X and Y coordinates. Use them to explore relationships between measures, identify clusters, and spot outliers across a population of entities.

​
Variants

​
Basic scatter

Two measures on the X and Y axes. Each row in your result set becomes one point.

​
With color grouping

Map a dimension to the Color channel to assign each point a color by category. Use this to compare how different groups distribute across the same two measures.

​
With size encoding

Map a third numeric measure to the Size channel to scale each point’s radius by value. Use this to encode a third variable without adding a new axis.

​
Size encoding

Assign a measure to the Size channel in the Fields tab. Points scale proportionally to the measure value. Configure the minimum and maximum radius in the Style tab.

​
Tooltips

All mapped fields appear in the tooltip by default. Add or remove fields in the Tooltips section of the Fields tab. See Tooltips for details.
