Hi @Biju_Shankar,

You need to convert values to percentages to display them on the Y axis with the help of Table Transformer via SQL query like this:


SELECT T1.'column1',
 FORMATNUMBER(T1.'Feb'*100/(SELECT SUM(T1.'Feb') from T1)) + "%" AS 'Feb',
 FORMATNUMBER(T1.'Mar'*100/(SELECT SUM(T1.'Mar') from T1)) + "%" AS 'Mar',
 FORMATNUMBER(T1.'Apr'*100/(SELECT SUM(T1.'Apr') from T1)) + "%" AS 'Apr'
FROM T*

Please use Table Toobox to combine app macros in Confluence Cloud.

Create a chart and add percentages to the bars with the Show data labels option.

Here's the result you can reach:

Otherwise, you can only display values and percentages together via Show data labels on bars, but the Y-axis displays values.

Hi @Biju_Shankar,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

Are these charts/screenshots from Excel or from a plugin? Confluence does not offer charts like these out-of-the-box, so most likely you will need a plugin.

If you want to try a plugin, our Great Gadgets app for Confluence Cloud offers many macros that can be useful for this use case.   

For example, by using the Pivot Table & Pivot Chart macro you can display such charts with a few clicks. And the data will be in real time!

Here are some examples showing created tickets by type every month. But the gadget is highly configurable, so you can choose other fields (such as priority, severity, etc) or to format the dates in many other ways.
