SessionsByHourChart

Description

This ColumnChart charts the number of sessions for each hour of the day (0 for midnight, 12 for noon, 18 for 6pm, etc), in the date range specified (number of days ago, until today).

This shows what time of day users are most active and can be helpful for knowing when to post.

Refer to the Charts Overview for a list of all charts available.

Customizing

This chart has been preconfigured for ease of use, but you can customize it by providing a query or options prop.

The properties you specify in either prop object will override the ones used by this chart.

This means you can cherry-pick the properties you'd like to override, such as the metrics in the query, or the width in options, without having to create a completely custom chart.
