[GA4] Customize charts in detail reports

You can customize the charts that appear in the first half of a detail report. You can also hide one or both of the charts from the detail report. Anyone with access to the detail report will see the charts you choose.

Important: To keep the chart types, but view different data in those charts, you must update the data presented in the report. You can update the data by changing the dimension, applying a filter or comparison, or sorting by a different default metric. Additionally, you can customize the dimensions and customize the metrics according to your specific data analysis needs. All of these changes will update the data shown in the charts at the top of the report.

Before you begin

You must be an editor or administrator to customize the charts in a detail report.

Steps

1. When viewing a detail report, click in the top right. If you do not see the option, you don't have permission to customize the detail report.

2. Under the 'CHARTS' header, you can manage the two charts in the report. If you see a 'CARDS' header on the right instead of a 'CHARTS' header, you are looking at an overview report, not a detail report. Make sure you are viewing a detail report.
   • Change the chart type by clicking to the right of the chart.
   • Hide a chart by clicking .
   • Change the order in the report by dragging and dropping the charts in the list.
3. Click Apply to apply the changes.
4. Click Save > Save changes to current report to save the changes to the report.
