It would be a great addition to Klipfolio to support Sankey Diagrams (similar to the ones provided by Google Charts: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/sankey).  These diagrams are becoming a very popular way to reflect the many to many relationships common in marketing.

  Hi Aaron,

  Thank you for contributing to our community and raising this request.

  Are there examples of the relationships you are trying to view this way that you could share?  It would also be great to get a sense for how frequently you would use (or have wished for) this kind of visualization.

  Any additional context helps with prioritization efforts.

  In the meantime, I will add your name to a feature request for discussion with the product team for prioritization.

  Thanks again!

  Cheers,

  Scott.

  Thanks Scott.  We have found these charts a great way to show a flow of users within markets.  They can be applicable to a wide variety of scenarios such as showing market share switching between competitors (e.g., you acquired 50 of competitor A's customers and they acquired 20 of your customers).  These are the diagrams that our clients are asking for so they would be central to our dashboards.

  I would also give a big +1 to this. We also would have a heavy need of charts like this. Attached there is also another way of how showing a path a user is using an application - so where it starts and how many are going where (and therefore also how many get lost in between) - can be done.

  

   

  Flurry for instance is offering such flow data. But the paths need to be defined individually per chart, they can not be derived from the flurry-data.

  Sankey charts are very used in B2C companies, Google Analytics has something very "similar" which is helpful (the flow diagrams).
