General Field Definitions:

  • Group - This column can be any data type, aggregated or not aggregated. These columns are used to group data in other columns, and often serve as the axis or scale of a particular visualization.

  • Time - This column must be a Datetime data type.

  • Metric - This column can be any data type. It is generally an aggregate, and most commonly a numeric, but does not have to be. These columns are the elements that are being charted, mapped, or displayed on your visualization.
