How do I format the JSON input for QuickChart to display multiple data series in a bar chart?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

I'm trying to configure the QuickChart node in n8n to generate a bar chart where each x-axis label displays two bars (representing two data series).

With the current pinned input and node settings, the chart displays the labels along the x-axis but no bars appear. I'm unsure what structure the value of the Data property should have.

Below is the intended JSON structure for a bar chart with two data series that QuickChart expects:

JSON
{ "labels": ["Label 1", "Label 2", "Label 3"], "datasets": [ { "label": "Series 1", "data": [10, 20, 30] }, { "label": "Series 2", "data": [15, 25, 35] } ] }

This JSON includes:

  • A "labels" array that sets the x-axis labels
  • A "datasets" array with objects for each series, each having a "label" for the series name and a "data" array for numeric values corresponding to each label

Please confirm that:

  1. The JSON is valid and exactly matches the expected structure.
  2. The pinned input data in your workflow is formatted as shown.
  3. The QuickChart node is configured to work with a JSON object containing the keys "labels" and "datasets" as required by QuickChart’s API.

If there are further issues, double-check that the output from the previous node precisely matches this structure before feeding it into the QuickChart node.

Below is an example of how your JSON input for the Data property might look for a bar chart with two data series, using the structure that QuickChart expects:

JSON
{ "labels": ["Label 1", "Label 2", "Label 3"], "datasets": [ { "label": "Series 1", "data": [10, 20, 30] }, { "label": "Series 2", "data": [15, 25, 35] } ] }

In this example:

  • The "labels" array represents the x-axis labels.
  • The "datasets" array contains objects for each data series. Each includes a "label" (the series name) and a "data" array with numeric values corresponding to each label.

Make sure that:

  1. The provided JSON is valid.
  2. The pinned input data in your workflow is correctly formatted as shown.
  3. The QuickChart node is configured to expect a JSON object with the keys "labels" and "datasets", as per QuickChart’s API documentation.

This approach should result in a chart with the intended labels on the x-axis and two sets of bars (one per data series) for each label.

If you continue to experience issues, verify that the output from the previous node (the pinned data) exactly matches the expected structure above before passing it to the QuickChart node.
