Expose Charts creation using API and get back embedded chart's URI
We can use Chart's API to construct the charts on demand through various JS application and client requirements, without exposing the Charts dashboard / data sources in a multi tenant application. We can use the API's to modify / create charts and get back the embedded chart URI to show on the application UI.

Set a Custom Timezone for all Dates by Default
Since mongo by default stores the dates in UTC timezone, whenever we have to create a chart based on the time, we need to always go to the
customize
section and change the timezone. It's a repetitive process and sometimes people forget, and end up exporting wrong data. (A major use-case for charts for us is also self-serve data export by non tech users)We can change the timezone using an aggregation pipeline, but that changes the data type itself from date to number (by splitting into day, month, hour etc); and then it's manual work in the chart UI…

Switching Chart Type should not erase existing settings
If I change the chart type (e.g. a Line Chart) from Discrete to Continuous, it'd be nice if I didn't have to restart from scratch. Currently it erases my settings.

$todayDate filter
This allows us to create charts that give us insight whether this is a great, good, average or a bad day. The $todayDate filter range should be 00:00:00 to 23:59:59

allow to sort series by a field that is not in a series
We have one scenario in which we're adding a series for the purpose of using it in the 'sort by', specific example:
A "Thing" goes trough "Stages" (e.g. Open Doing, Done, Closed). These Stages have a particular order. We'd like a chart of number of Things per Stages.Right now we the sort by options would only allow us to sort by the Value or the Stages (alphabetically). What we'd like is to be able to provide the order we define.
There are two workarounds but are not ideal:
1. We can do stack bars and put the Order value…15 votes -
Custom color scheme
I would like to have the ability to define my own color scheme that is then used for either entire dashboards or individual charts. At the current moment, the color schemes available are hardcoded. While they make the dashboards attractive, when integrated into existing applications that follow a certain styleguide, it's not ideal.
8 votesThanks for the suggestion Thomas – we are planning on implementing this later this year.

Please let us save chart without closing
Right now if I want to save my changes to a chart, I have to click "Save and Close". I would love an option to just save the changes, as I often change something and reload the code where I embed a chart.

Date binning by quarter
It would be great to be able to bin dates by quarter. In particular, it would be nice to have financial quarters with a customizable start date for the financial year.

Customize MongoDB Charts - Chart title
Can we please have general customization option for chart title as well? Currently we are only allowed to edit the chart title but we cannot format it in anyway. It would be a good option to change the font color, size, style etc. for chart titles.
6 votesThanks for the suggestion Priyanka. We are currently adding the ability to add a description to a chart, which can include rich text and hyperlinks.

Custom Binning Ranges
Hi Tom (and Team). We would love the ability to bin by custom ranges. We currently can only set a static number, which can lead to some pretty non-standard groupings of data.
EG: For Age, we'd like to be able to create the following bins: 0-17, 18-25, 26-35, 36-45, etc... Since under 18 is a common age range to group together, the bins we have to used are 0-17, 18-34, 35-52, etc..., which isn't a terribly standard age range to group data by.

Ability to customize label data
When hovering over a data marker, I can see a box showing the X, Y values as well as the series. It would be quite useful to be able to include additional fields from the data source in that popup. In our case, we're plotting performance data for different commits, and while we do have the commit sha and can manually lookup information about the commit, it would be great to just have the commit message, author, and date at a glance in the charts.

Template chart
A great feature would be to support template charts. The intention is that you have a query that calculates a client’s total gross revenue or the amount of credit card transactions they have processed in realtime. (e.g a text chart). This template could have one or multiple input parameters (think SQL stored procedure / view). Then we could display this chart per customer which would be a game changer to us because then we could tailor our embedded dashboards to each customer.

data source collection not shown if name is long
If there are multiple collections with identical prefixes longer than 20 or so characters, it's not possible to tell them apart, making it impossible to see the data source collection

Visualize polygons and points on the same map
Capability to visualize GeoJSON polygons and points from data collection on the same map view. That would allow user to create custom grid on a map.
IMHO it'd be very helpful feature when working with geolocation helping to visualize things and also debug during development.

Import Binning
I have some jobs that I need to rename with binnings. These jobs appear on many graphs, and it would be helpful to be able to import these binnings between graphs or even dashboards.
Thanks for your help!

Custom logo watermark on charts
Would be great to add a semi-transparent watermark to the corner or center of charts. Especially useful while screenshotting or embedding charts.
If i can set a global config for watermarks across all charts, that would be great as well.
