How to add deadlines to a chart

P

Hello. I am trying to do:

  • Create a chart when users made withdrawals (payments)
  • Add to this chart the dates (deadlines) when users are prohibited from making any withdrawals (payments)

What I have:

  • Withdrawal (payment) events when users have performed them
  • An array of dates (deadlines) in user properties.

What I did:

  1. Created line chart in segmentation
  2. Added event  withdrawal to the chart 
  3. When I try to add dates to the chart from the user properties, I get nothing

What I expected:

 

Any idea how I can solve it maybe in the other way,  because I think the chart does not support it ?

I will be very grateful for any help

Hi @Petro 
Such customization is not supported since the date property values will be charted whenever that event gets triggered ( using a group by) and not really relative to the time in your chart.

One workaround would be to add a chart annotation on that deadline date, but this isn’t scalable. It would be only for an one off purpose.

You can work around this by using annotations. Add an annotation to mark important dates on your timeline. Another option is exporting the data and visualizing it in a BI tool where you can manually set deadlines.
