In this lesson, we dive into dashboards and visualizations and the core concepts behind Tables — databases that live in Parabola. 

Building challenge | Part 1 (Tables)

• Above your “Trigger an email” card, add a card titled “Create a Parabola Table” and add a Send to Parabola Table step to the card

Building challenge | Part 2 (Visualizations) 

In this challenge, we’ll create a visualization on the canvas to look at sales over time. 

• Below your “Trigger an email” card, add a card titled, “Visualize sales over time” and add a Visualize step to the card 
• Draw an arrow from Categorize with AI to Visualize and click “Edit this view” 
• In the top left, change the view from a Table to a Column chart 
• Name the chart “Sales over time”, and make the X-axis Order date 
• Under Y-axis, click “+ Add series”, then select Revenue (also change Count all to Sum)
• Bonus: In your X- and Y-axis options, name your axes “Month” and “Revenue” respectively and format your Y-axis as currency
