# Gauge Chart

The **Gauge Chart** in **Lowcoder** is a dynamic, dial-style visualization ideal for displaying **real-time values**, **threshold indicators**, or **KPI metrics**. Inspired by speedometers or pressure dials, it’s perfect for showing how close a value is to a goal or limit — at a glance.

#### Common Use Cases

* **System Monitoring:** CPU usage, memory, temperature
* **Business Metrics:** Sales target completion, customer satisfaction score
* **IoT Dashboards:** Sensor readings, production levels

#### Sample Data Format

This chart typically expects a single value:

```json
{ "metric": 76 }
```

You can bind this to a query, variable, or transformer like: `{{query1.data.metric}}`

#### Key Features

* **Chart Type:** Set to "Gauge Chart" in the Properties panel
* **Min & Max Values:** Define your dial’s scale — e.g., 0 to 100
* **Color Zones:** Highlight ranges (e.g., green for good, red for danger)
* **Pointer & Label:** Shows current value in real-time with optional animation

***

#### Custom Styling

* Modify **dial color**, **tick marks**, and **pointer style**
* Use **ECharts JSON editor** for deeper customization (like gradients or split sections)
* Animate the needle for live dashboards

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.lowcoder.cloud/lowcoder-documentation/build-applications/app-editor/visual-components/dashboard-and-reporting/charts-and-graphs/gauge-chart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
