How to Create a Sunburst Chart
- Enter your hierarchical data in the table or upload CSV/Excel with category paths (e.g., Region/Country/City)
- Structure your data using path notation (Parent/Child/Grandchild) or separate columns for each hierarchy level
- Select the value column that determines segment size - larger values create bigger segments in the sunburst
- Adjust the inner and outer radius to control how the sunburst rings are sized and spaced
- Configure label display: show names on hover, always visible, or hide for cleaner appearance
- Choose color schemes that distinguish hierarchy levels clearly - use gradients or categorical palettes
- Click segments to drill down into subcategories and explore nested data interactively
- Export your sunburst chart as PNG, SVG, or embed code for presentations and dashboards
