    • For additional metrics, use the "Create Metric" button located at the top right.
  3. Select Data Source:
    • Within the create metric page, choose the desired table from the schemas of your added databases.
  4. Configure Metric:
    • "Drag and Drop" desired columns as dimensions and metrics.
    • Choose a visualization using the "Chart Icon".
    • Further refine using options like "Joins", "Filters", "Sort", and other available actions. These are found among the list of icons.
  5. Save Metric:
    • Once satisfied with your chart, click "Save to Dashboard" at the top right.
