Plot one or more lines over time, with points, areas and axis titles - here in this tab, with nothing uploaded.
Line graphs track things over time - revenue, weight, a science experiment. The data is drawn here in the tab and never leaves it.
Yes. Copy the cells and paste them into the data box - they arrive as columns. You can also drop an .xlsx, .xls, .ods or .csv file; the first sheet is read.
Leave the cell empty. The line breaks at the gap instead of inventing a value to draw through.

Up to eight with distinct colours. With four or fewer, each line is also labelled at its end, so readers do not have to match colours to a legend.
PNG at twice the screen size, for documents and slides; SVG, a vector file that stays sharp at any size and opens in Illustrator, Figma, Inkscape or PowerPoint; or copy the image and paste it straight into a doc or a chat.
