Creating the First Visualization

    Let's focus on creating the "YTD Twitter Followers" visualization in the sample dashboard presented at the beginning of this tutorial. The visualization displays a Text Gauge.

    First, open the visualizations picker by selecting the grid icon in the top bar.

    VisualizationsMenu\_All

    Change your visualization to "Text Gauge".

    SelectTextGauge\_All

    Then, drag and drop the Twitter Followers by Year field into the Value placeholder of the data editor.

    SocialFirstDragDrop\_All

    Lastly, change the visualization's title to "YTD Twitter Followers" by selecting the pencil next to the "Social Dashboard" title.

    SocialWonOpportunitiesTitle\_All

    Your visualization should look like the following one:

    SocialFirstVisualizationSample\_All

    Once you are done, go back to the Dashboard Editor by selecting the tick icon in the top right-hand corner.
