Hi,

I assume you're talking about the Image Charts (which are now deprecated),
and not the newer Visualization API, which is for web sites (it is
JavaScript-based), since app inventor only makes Android apps. In order to
construct something like that, you should follow the instructions
here<https://developers.google.com/chart/image/docs/gallery/line_charts>.
>From what you specified, it seems like you want the 'lxy' chart type, since
you probably want to see and specify both the x and y data. For example,
take the following chart URL:
https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?cht=lxy&chs=200x125&chd=t:10,20,40,80,90,95,99|20,30,40,50,60,70,80|-1|5,10,22,35,85&chco=3072F3,ff0000,00aaaa&chls=2,4,1&chm=s,000000,0,-1,5|s,000000,1,-1,5&chdl=Ponies|Unicorns&chdlp=t
We can split it up into its individual parameters, to make it a bit easier
to read:
cht=lxy
chs=200x125
chd=t:10,20,40,80,90,95,99|20,30,40,50,60,70,80|-1|5,10,22,35,85
chls=2,4,1
chm=s,000000,0,-1,5|s,000000,1,-1,5
chdl=Ponies|Unicorns
chdlp=t
And then cross-check these with the documentation to figure out what each
of them means.
cht=lxy : This is the chart type that allows us to specify the X and Y
values.
chs=200x125 : This is the chart size
chd=t:10,20,40,80,90,95,99|20,30,40,50,60,70,80|-1|5,10,22,35,85 : This is
the chart data. As outlined in the page I linked to, this will parse to a
chart with two lines, which will have the following values:
  10, 20
  20, 30
  40, 40
  80, 50
  90, 60
  95, 70
  99, 80

And the second line says -1|5,10,22,35,85. This wouldn't make sense, as
there aren't enough X values for the Y values, but the documentation says
that the value of '-1' will make the chart space evenly, so you only have
to specify the Y values there.

chls=2,4,1 : These are the line styles.
chm=s,000000,0,-1,5|s,000000,1,-1,5 : These are the line fills.
chdl=Ponies|Unicorns : This is the chart legend
chdlp=t : And this is the position for the chart legend (it puts it on the
top).

You can find the documentation for the shared options
here<https://developers.google.com/chart/image/docs/chart_params>.
I hope this helps!
