# Create a funnel visualization

A funnel visualization shows how data progresses through sequential stages, helping you identify drop-offs or bottlenecks at each step. Use it to track conversions, workflows, or process completion rates. You can add a funnel visualization to an existing dashboard or to a new dashboard.

## Before you begin

Role required: report\_user, admin, or viz\_creator

Ensure you have an admin role or permission from the dashboard owner to edit the dashboard.

## About this task

If you have the appropriate role, you can add and edit funnel reports on a dashboard. The **Edit** button is not available on the ITOM dashboards unless the user has rights to edit it. For more details on creating dashboards, see [Common dashboard tasks in the in-line editor](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/now-intelligence/common-dashboard-tasks.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **Workspaces** > **Service Operations Workspace** and select the AIOps Dashboards icon \(\[Omitted image "aiops-operational-icon.png"\] Alt text: AIOps Dashboards icon.\).

2.  From the Dashboard picker, select **AIOps 360 overview**.

5.  In the Add Visualization window, select **New visualization**.

6.  From the **Visualization type** field, select **Funnel**.

    **Note:** The **Funnel** visualization type is currently available only to customers who have the ITOM plugin installed.

7.  Under **Data sources**, select **+ Add data source**.

    There are two kinds of data sources avail for the **Funnel** visualization type: Table and Indicator. Visualizations based on table data show a snapshot of the state of that data. Indicator visualizations reflect data over time based on data collection jobs. You can configure funnel stages using indicators in one of the following ways:

    You can configure funnel stages using indicators in one of the following ways:

    -   Option 1: Use a single indicator or table with a breakdown

        Select a single indicator or table, and then define the breakdown using the Group by field. The breakdown values are used as the funnel stages.

        **Note:** If you select only one indicator without a breakdown, the visualization displays an error: `Invalid configuration. A 'Group By' must be selected for the visualization to render.`

    -   Option 2: Use multiple indicators without a breakdown

        Select multiple indicators without setting a breakdown. In this case, each indicator's value represents a stage in the funnel.
