Have a look at [Perspective - XY Chart - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Perspective+-+XY+Chart#PerspectiveXYChart-Examples).

For bar chart you need to set `props.series.0.render: column`.

You probably need to remove the `[]` around your values too.

Did you read the manual link and try to set it up? Where did you get stuck?

Hi @Transistor,

Sorry for the delay in reply, I was on Leave , so i could not reply you back

i have tried appending those datasets in the datasources as example then changed the series field as below but data is not visible,

Hi @Ignition_Tourists,  
Have done this with the help of my colleague instead of changing the value as dataset you need to convert it as array then you need to bind the same in xy chart

```auto
xy_chart_data = []
for day,consumption in zip(week_data,consumption_list):
	data_value = {"t_stamp":day,"process_temp":consumption }
	xy_chart_data.append(data_value)

```

you can refer this for better understanding
