We would like to have multiple y-axis on a chart, more than 2

Update 10/17: This is now in our upcoming roadmap and we will share more details in the coming months. Mo

Multiple y-axis for Cartesian charts is on our backlog. I don't have a timeline to share, but please keep voting. I'll update the idea once we have more information to share.

Absolutely! Many applications allow for even multiple scales on a single axis, which I think would be an even better idea!

Please support dual Y-Axis on Line Chart

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

This is huge. I can't compare headcount vs subscribers on 2 Y-Axis like I can in Excel. Huge disconnect.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

By default, the secondary Y-axis option applies to all lines in a chart. Currently, it is not available to make it only apply to one specific line. It is critical to be able to choose which line is plotted on the secondary axis vs. the primary axis. This is a very common task in excel and would be great to have the functionality in PowerBI.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

It's odd that such an obvious chart feature is not already included

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

I would get a lot of use out of having a secondary y axis on a line chart.

Same request : primary and secondary Y-axis or more.

I surprised no one has created a custom visual for this yet.
