If you want to convert the existing chart to the table, then you can follow this step. As you can see from the screenshot below, we created a column chart, which represents the Sales Amount by Product Name.
Click on the Table under the Visualization section. It automatically converts the Column Chart into a Table. From the below screenshot, you can see the Tabular representation of Product names and their Sales Amount.
