Feature Request: Table-only insights with time-based breakdowns
Feature request
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Currently, when converting trend insights to table format, the time breakdown is lost and only shows aggregated sums. For dashboards where we only need tabular data, there's no way to display time-series data in a table format without also showing the graph visualization.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add the ability to create table-only insights that maintain time-based breakdowns (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) without requiring a graph component. This would allow users to:
- Create pure table visualizations with time series data
- Share cleaner dashboards focused on tabular data
- Maintain the detailed time breakdown that's currently only available in graph format under detailed results
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Using SQL insights for custom tables (but this requires more technical knowledge)
- Hiding graph elements via CSS (not a sustainable solution)

@benHPostHog I would like to contribute to this issue.
Hey @benHPostHog, can you share some instructions on how can I reproduce this behaviour locally? I can see an insights page from the dummy data but where is the options to go "table only" view?
