Charts API, progrmamatically create and update charts and chart views

Great! Hope to see the api soon. In terms of the chart view let me explain to you my scenario: We are a software business, all our data is in a cluster and due to privacy and security reasons each of our clients have its own independent DB inside our cluster. Some visualizations, require a chart view to preprocess data with multiple complex lookups and other operations, operations we can’t perform on the chart query builder due to the no lookup restrictions (we know lookups can be done with click-ops but for some cases it is not enough due to the pipeline we need for an specific visualization). So to create a desired viz or dashboard, we first create its chart view and build the vez from the chart view. Having a lot of clients means I’d have to manually do this process for all of them, if we had an API we could write scripts so that I can create the same chart view-via-dashboard for all my different client DB’s without having to manually create each one of them. We are really excited about using charts because so far, its the only BI tool that allows us to build with click-ops in a NoSQL DB
