Create multi-row cards that capture KPI metrics at different granularities. An insight chart is a summary of the sparkline chart displayed as a bullet chart. Let's look at how to insert and configure insight charts.

STEP 1: Select the bullet chart type to be used as an insight chart. Analytics+ supports the Conditional bar, Qualitative bullet bar, Comparative bullet bar, and IBCS bullet bar.
