## Before you start

- Use data that you can explain clearly. Check that external content allows embedding.

- Have the source attachment ready and use descriptive link or file labels.

## Step by step

1. Choose Add block → Media → Chart to present data. Select a bar, line, or pie chart and edit its labels and values.

2. Add a nearby explanation of what the chart demonstrates; do not make the visual the only source of the conclusion.

3. Choose Embed for hosted content. Enter a suitable player or embed URL using the element’s controls.

4. Choose Attachment to import a file learners can download. Give it a recognizable title or description.

5. Preview each element. Open an embed as a learner and download the attachment to confirm it is the intended file.

6. Test again after export, especially when opening locally or inside an LMS.

## What to expect

Charts present your authored data, embeds show external resources, and attachments provide packaged downloads. These are separate delivery mechanisms.

## Tips & troubleshooting

- Embedded sites can reject iframe display or require cookies, login, or internet access. Provide a useful alternative when possible.

- A chart is not a connection to a live data source; update its values when your source changes.

- Replacing a file on your computer does not necessarily replace the attachment already imported into the project. Update the element explicitly.
