Don't forget: there's only a few days left to enter the Timeline Storyteller custom visual contest! You could win a Power BI Super Swag Prize Pack.

To enter, publish a report in the Data Stories Gallery using the new Timeline Storyteller visual. Make sure you use the category "Timeline Contest", and have shared your entry by 11:59 p.m. PT on September 18.

Our Data Journalism and Microsoft Research teams will select a winner and two runners-up from the reports submitted, based on storytelling, data modeling, and a good use of the Timeline Storyteller visual. Please note that all submissions will be used by Microsoft for research and to improve our products and services. We may also include it in a future research publication.

Timeline Storyteller is an expressive visual storytelling environment for presenting timelines. You can use Timeline Storyteller to present different aspects of your data using a palette of timeline representations, scales, and layouts, as well as controls for filtering, highlighting, and annotation.
