Prepare the worksheet
Keep the charting range simple: one header row, one label column, and one or more numeric columns. Remove decorative title rows, merged cells, subtotals, and notes from the range you plan to import. The first worksheet is read, so move the relevant table there when necessary.

Privacy and limitations
The workbook is parsed in your browser rather than uploaded to a Chart Maker database. Chart Maker is intended for clean tabular ranges; it does not reproduce Excel pivot charts, macros, conditional formatting, or workbook formulas as editable chart features.
