# Creating a chart

**Objectives:** in this first exercise we will learn on to duplicate a tile, how the exploration page work and how to create basic chart.&#x20;

### Duplicating a tile

In the first step we will duplicate our "Order per week" tile. To do so:

1. Open the Training report
2. In edit mode, click on duplicate tile.
3. On the new tile, open the submenu and click on "Edit tile"

### Using the exploration page

We are now on the exploration page. You can think of this page as the dynamic chart screen in excel. This page is structured with three panels:

1. On the left, you will find the **exploration content**. It contains [metrics](https://docs.whaly.io/data-management/explorations/metrics) (in blue), a [dimensions](https://docs.whaly.io/data-management/explorations/dimensions) (in green).
2. On the middle, you will find :&#x20;
   1. The **query visualisation** : this is where you query will be turned into a chart
   2. The **breakdown** where you will find the aggregated data that was used to build a chart
3. On the right, you will find :&#x20;
   1. The **query builder,** where we will use the measures and dimensions we have at our disposal in order to ask a question on our data
   2. The **chart options**, allowing use to customise the look of our chart. The options will change based on the type of chart you want to display

### Creating our number of order by status chart

The exercise wants to create the following chart :&#x20;

> Add Order breakdown per Order status

To do it based on our initial chart, this is quite simple:&#x20;

1. Group your visualisation using the "Status" dimension
2. Change the chart type to "Stacked bar chart" under timeserie
3. Click on run query
4. Click on update tile

That's it :tada: Our chart now represents the number of order grouped by week and by order status. Let's move on the next exercise to learn more about metrics and calculated metrics.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.whaly.io/training/for-builders/creating-a-chart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
