Statistic
This section explains how to create statistic dashboard elements and add them to your dashboard.
Statistics dashboard elements display a summary of the selected metrics over a given time period. For example, you can use a statistic dashboard element to show the average, sum, min, max, and count of response times or error counts.
Prerequisites
- Create an Axiom account.
- Create a dataset in Axiom where you send your data.
- Send data to your Axiom dataset.
- Create an empty dashboard.
