Area chart

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft FabricAzure Data ExplorerAzure MonitorMicrosoft Sentinel

The area chart visual shows a time-series relationship. The first column of the query should be numeric and is used as the x-axis. Other numeric columns are the y-axes. Unlike line charts, area charts also visually represent volume. Area charts are ideal for indicating the change among different datasets.
