Charts

Create charts from your monday.com board and insert them into your report.

Insert charts into your report

You can generate charts based on data from your monday.com board by using PDF Report Generator. These charts can be output on your document by using specific placeholders.

This article is all about how to insert the generated charts into your document. If you want to learn more about generating charts with PDF Report Generator in general, take a look here.

Note: If you use our Report Builder, all charts that you generate there will be automatically inserted into your report/template.

Please note, that Charts are only available for reports based on data of the "entire board", not for "single item" reports.

Insert placeholder for your chart

To keep it as simple as possible, we display the correct placeholder for your charts directly in the overview of your generated charts.

1. Click on "More" to open up all features and settings.

2. Click on "Charts" to open the overview of your generated charts. Now you can simply copy and paste the placeholder you´ll find there into your Word document.

In general the placeholder looks like this:

{{Chart(450;300):NameofChart}}

Note: Please exchange NameOfChart with the name of your actual chart. See section working with placeholders if you need more explanation.

Example: If your chart name is "Task Status", the placeholder would be {{Chart(450;300):Task Status}}

Change the size of your chart

We also suggest a size in the placeholder that we display. This is the number in brackets, e.g. (450;300).

But you can also define the size of the chart yourself. To do this, change the part in brackets after Chart:

{{Chart(450;300):Task Status}}

The "450" in the placeholder defines the image's width in pixels. The second value is the height.

Enter the size of the image in pixels here, separated by a semicolon.

If you change the {{Chart(450;300):Task Status}} to {{Chart(225;150):Task Status}}, it's half the size on the final report.

Add more than one chart

Of course you can add more than one chart to your report. Feel free to include as many charts and report statistics as you like. The only limit is you!
