This topic describes the common syntax of Markdown charts and how to add a Markdown chart to a Simple Log Service dashboard.
Prerequisites
Data is collected to Simple Log Service. For more information, see Data collection overview.

Overview
Simple Log Service allows you to add Markdown charts to a dashboard. If you want to modify charts, you must use the Markdown syntax. You can insert text, such as background information, chart descriptions, notes, and extension information, into Markdown charts to optimize information presentation. You can insert saved searches or the dashboard links of other projects to navigate to other query pages. You can also insert custom images and videos to supplement your dashboard information.
