Time series charts are graphical representations of your connections over time: the peaks
and valleys that display depict high and low connection activity. They are useful for short-term and
long-term data trending, and you can access, navigate, and investigate connections from various
perspectives.
Before you begin
If you previously saved a search as the default, the results for that saved search display
on the Connections page. If that search included Group By options that are
selected in the Advanced View Definitions box, the Time Series chart is not available. You must
clear the search criteria before you can continue. Tip: If you use an Adblock Plus
browser extension with a Mozilla Firefox web browser, the charts might not display properly. For the
charts to display, you must remove the Adblock Plus browser extension. For more information about
removing add-ons, see your web browser documentation.
