Basic Hierarchy Chart

Overview

The Basic Hierarchy Chart displays hierarchical data in a top-down structure, where entries are connected based on parent-child relationships. A common use case is visualizing an organizational chart, where managers and employees are represented in a nested tree format.

This chart is suitable for data models that represent relationships such as "Manager → Employee", "Category → Subcategory", or any similar hierarchical structure.

Requirements for the Data Source

To properly render a Basic Hierarchy Chart, the underlying data must meet the following criteria:

• Unique ID Field
  Each entry must contain a unique identifier (e.g., id or uuid).

• Parent ID Field
  Each entry must include a reference to its parent using a unique parent ID.

  • For the root node (e.g., a CEO in an organizational chart), the parent_id should be the same as its own id.

• Display Field(s)
  Each entry must contain at least one field (e.g., name, title) to be displayed in the chart node.
