Chart from Table is one of the macros bundled in the Table Filter, Charts & Spreadsheets app. The macro allows you to visualize your table data and create dynamic charts that you can configure and update on the fly while viewing Confluence pages.
Please note that Confluence Cloud doesn't support macro nesting. So, if you want to visualize an already transformed table (coming after Table Transformer, Pivot Table, Table Filter macros in different combinations), insert the Table Toolbox macro.
The Table Toolbox macro was developed to overcome this limitation: you can wrap the source table in the macro, then go to its settings and create the required macro sequence within its shell. If the Chart from Table macro is the outer macro of the sequence, then you'll get a graph as a result.
