Consider this chart type when you want to analyze how your metrics change over time. | | Table | Displays your data in rows and columns with exact numbers | Tables allow you to review precise values and compare specific numbers side-by-side. Consider this chart type when you want to export data or examine detailed breakdowns of campaign data. | | Stacked line | Shows comparison periods stacked on top of each so you can see both individual parts and the combined total | Stacked line graphs help you compare two time periods. Consider this chart type when you want to compare time periods to identify the cause of performance differences. | | Bar | Uses vertical bars to compare campaign metrics | Bar graphs provide quick metric comparisons at a specific point in time.

Depending on your chart type, your chosen metrics determine how many charts or tabs display in the report. There are default metrics that apply to all campaign goals, such as Impressions, Installs, and Spend. There are also metrics for each of the optimized campaign goals, like Total ROAS and Retention Rate. When you select any of the optimized campaign goal metrics, you also choose the optimization window for the report, for example D0 (day-zero) or D7 (day-seven). **The Metrics sidebar:** ![The Metrics sidebar of the Performance dashboard](/api/media?file=/user-acquisition/media/images/metrics-sidebar.png) For detailed metric descriptions, refer to the [Performance dashboard metrics reference](/user-acquisition/performance/dashboard/metrics-reference.md). 3. **Data points** ### Select report data points The dimensions of your report are the additional data points you want to analyze with your KPIs.
