An overview of Single Value chart
A Single Value chart is a type of data visualization that represents a single data point or value. It is typically used to display a specific numeric value or metric in a visually straightforward and concise manner. Single value charts are often employed in dashboards and reports to highlight key performance indicators (KPIs) or important metrics. You can also display a comparison and trend chart.
Single Value settings have three tabs: General, Display, and Actions.
In the general tab you can set up the value to display and its filters, a comparison, and a trend chart.
To set up a single value, you need to select your dataset and choose which data you would like the chart to display, select the way the data to be displayed, and optionally apply filters.

Trend chart will display the chart for an easier understanding of how your value changed over some period. To set it up, you would need to select the exact value that will be compared to your main value.
