What columns does my survey results CSV need?
One column for the answer option and one for its count. If your export lists people as rows, count the rows per answer first — or transpose the table.
Histogram for Survey Results
Survey exports arrive as counts per answer. Whether it is five Likert options or an open-field tally, the shape maps directly onto a chart.
Example: survey results as a histogram

Download the histogram as PNG, SVG or CSV, or open it in Studio to tune colors, labels and sorting.
Why a histogram fits survey results
A histogram is built for distribution: values are binned so you can see where the mass sits, how wide the spread is, and which way the data leans. For survey results, a column of numbers turns into a shape you can argue with.
