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.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

'Excel allow to create chart with two line axis.
For example:
- one Y-axis for price,
- other Y-axis for currency exchange or stock exchange
(because scales can very different)

Power BI allow to create only:
1) Line and clustered column chart and
2) Line and stacked column chart

Add to Power BI:
3) Line and line Chart

Multiple y axis for line charts (or for that matter, any chart) is a must have for productive corporate use.

Multiple y axis for line charts is a must have! Cannot switch from Excel to Power BI before this.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

This really needs to be done and has to be a standard feature.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

Please do this, it is a common function in chemical analysis were you require two axis on with different scales due to the chemical compounds in a product. You do not want one axis hugging the bottom of the scale and basically not visible.

RE: Multiple Y-Axis on a chart

It would be nice to have a second Y axis on the right side of a line chart... Example - on the left I have Gallons of wastewater water Treated and on the right I would have Rainfall... both are related to eachother but have different units.
