Create a Date chart

Updated:
Basics

This chart will show you how many Cards you have grouped by their Due, Start or Custom date. You can plot a single line for all cards or multiple lines to see (for example) cards by due date with a separate line for each Trello member.

Chart showing cards by due date broken down by member in Trello
  1. Create a new chart.
  2. Select "Date chart" from the menu options.
  3. Select your chart width preference. This is how much space your chart will take up on your dashboard.
    • 1/2 width tile = the chart will take up 1/2 the row (ie. you could fit 2 across)
    • 3/4 width tile = the chart will take up 3/4 of the row
    • Full width tile = the chart will take up the entire row
  4. Select which Board or Boards you would like to report on.
  5. Select which date field you wish to report on
  6. At the Data Breakdown step you can select to plot a single line for all cards or to get a separate line for each option in the grouping selected.
  7. Now you can select how to total your data. There are several options:
    • Cards - count the number of Cards.
    • Sum - sum a custom field value. This will be useful for numerical custom fields only.
    • Average - average a custom field value. This will be useful for numerical custom fields only.
  8. Now you can choose to apply a filter. Filters can also be applied after the report is created.
    Note: If you have selected to report on Completed Cards we recommend the "No Filter" option as a default.
    If you have selected to report on Open Cards, we recommend using a filter and filtering by List at a minimum.
    • No filter - this will show all Cards on your Board.
    • Filter - you will be able to select the data you'd like to see in your report.
  9. Give your chart a name. Hit the "Save" button, or press enter.
After you're finished...

Once you're chart is complete you can do the following:

  • Hover your mouse over different parts of the chart to show further details on your specified data.
  • Drag and drop this chart tile anywhere you like within your dashboard.
  • Drill down (by clicking on the chart title) and see full details of the Cards included in this chart
    Note: Drilldowns are only available once you click 'Done' in the top right.
  • Change the period for display (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly)
  • Change the date range to display
