Hi, I want to convert this google sheet data into a colorful barchart on Glidepages. I was able to create it using [quickchart.io](http://quickchart.io) but I want to be able to change the data directly from the app. On quick chart, I couldn’t figure out how to change data later. I need the bars to be of the same color as I have in the google sheet cell. ![barchart](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/b/bbd05bb73f3e52204cadbc83ed15d71a96eba341.png) ![glide barchart](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/8/38905a523c91c7426f544d2582d207d1c5f0e4ae.png) ---

Quickchart is just a url. If you change the contents of the url, then the image will change. Since you already have the base url constructed, then it’s just a matter of plugging it into a template column or a construct url column, and setting up the appropriate replacement values. Since your data is on multiple rows, then a joined list column will come into play here, and you will plug it into your template or construct url column. With that said, wouldn’t a glide bar chart work in this case, or is it to limiting? ---

It is limiting me to have custom color or in fact no color in Glide pages. All bars are having same colors. ---

OK, so quickchart is the way to go then for the custom colors. If you want to make each bar a different color, then you can change the ‘backgroundcolor’ attribute to an array of colors instead of just a single color. Each color should be in the same order as the data in the ‘data’ attrubute’. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/9/c9de07f7df30825833553ba9c4d972f661004bd3.png) ---

Is there a free version of changing the colour of graphs in Glide? [Quickchart.io](http://Quickchart.io) is paid for long term use seems like. ![Screenshot 2025-05-13 at 10.14.37 am](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/8/a8c41dd702f742cc0019c5c411967b46509f3ecf.png) ---
