Time series panel

Note: This is a beta feature. Time series panel is going to replace the Graph panel in the future releases.

Time series panel is a robust visualization to plot time series data. It can render as a line, a path of dots, or a series of bars. This type of graph is versatile enough to display almost any time-series data.

For Time series panel examples, refer to the Grafana Play dashboard New Features in v7.4.

Data and field options

Time series visualizations allow you to apply:

• [Data transformations]({{< relref "../../transformations/_index.md" >}})
• [Field options and overrides]({{< relref "../../field-options/_index.md" >}})
• [Thresholds]({{< relref "../../thresholds.md" >}})

You can also use field options to create different types of graphs or adjust your axes:

• [Graph time series as lines]({{< relref "graph-time-series-as-lines.md" >}})
• [Graph time series as bars]({{< relref "graph-time-series-as-bars.md" >}})
• [Graph time series as points]({{< relref "graph-time-series-as-points.md" >}})
• [Change axis display]({{< relref "change-axis-display.md" >}})

Display options

Note: You can migrate Graph panel visualizations to Time series visualizations. To migrate, on the Panel tab, click Time series visualization. Grafana transfers all applicable settings. (While in beta, migration is still being refined. It will get better as time goes on!)

Tooltip mode

When you hover your cursor over the graph, Grafana can display tooltips. Choose how tooltips behave.

• Single - The hover tooltip shows only a single series, the one that you are hovering over on the graph.
• All - The hover tooltip shows all series in the graph. Grafana highlights the series that you are hovering over in bold in the series list in the tooltip.
• Hidden - Do not display the tooltip when you interact with the graph.

Note: Use an override to hide individual series from the tooltip.

Legend calculations

Choose which of the [standard calculations]({{< relref "../../calculations-list.md">}}) to show in the legend. You can have more than one.
