Split a column into multiple series in visualisation

 Hi, I'm very new to PowerBI so my apologies if this is something simple or "the wrong way".

 

I have data in the following format:

 

TIMESTAMP    SERVER  SPEED
<timestamp>  A       30
<timestamp>  A       34
<timestamp>  A       37
<timestamp>  B       18
<timestamp>  B       22
<timestamp>  B       20

And I want to produce a line chart that shows SPEED over TIME, with one individual line per SERVER. How would I accomplish that?

 

For context, I got my data in this manner by taking two separate queries (one for server A, one for server B) and appending them to each other so I can work with them in a single visualisation/chart. If there is a better method than this to get both series on a single chart than please let me know!

 

Thanks

Choose line chart from the visual.

 

Drag Timestamp to AXIS, Serverto LEGEND and Speed to VALUES.

Doh - I didn't realise the LEGEND bit is to create additional series. Thanks @GilbertQ and @himanshu56!
