Create a custom chart based on an investigation

This feature is available with Cloud Identity Premium edition. Compare editions 

As an administrator, you can create a custom chart in the dashboard that's based on a search you entered in the security investigation tool. You can only create custom charts for data sources that are based on log events. For example, you can create a custom chart for Gmail log events but not for Gmail messages.

Note: Each administrator can create a maximum of 25 custom charts.

4. From the widget, preview how your chart will appear on the Dashboard.
