# Various types of charts

All chart types provided by PowerPoint are supported. 

Here are a few examples: 

* [#line-chart](#line-chart "mention")
* [#bar-chart](#bar-chart "mention")
* [#stacked-bar-chart](#stacked-bar-chart "mention")
* [#stacked-area-chart](#stacked-area-chart "mention")
* [#bar-line-combo-chart](#bar-line-combo-chart "mention")
* [#scatter-chart](#scatter-chart "mention")

These can be customized using the standard `data` and `settings` parameters in your payload.
