# Common Chart Configuration

When setting up a visualization, you can select how your data should be aggregated. These aggregations define how raw values are summarized and displayed in the chart. The available options include:

* **Sum** – Adds all numeric values in the column.
* **Average** – Calculates the arithmetic mean of the values.
* **First** – Returns the first value in the column based on the dataset order.
* **Last** – Returns the last value in the column based on the dataset order.
* **Maximum** – Returns the highest numeric value in the column.
* **Minimum** – Returns the lowest numeric value in the column.
* **Count** – Counts the total number of rows.
* **Count Distinct** – Counts the number of unique values in the column.
* **No Aggregation** – Displays the raw data without summarizing. Secondary values cannot be aggregated in this mode.

All aggregations are applied **per group of dimensions** defined in the chart configuration—most commonly labels or x-axis values, but they can also include other groupings like segments or packs.

Dimensional columns support only the *Count* and *Count Distinct* aggregation methods, as other types of summarization are not applicable.
