Type '{ type: string; name: string; data: any; }[]' not assignable to type

[Quichei]

Im getting this error and the descriptions on how to fix it make no sense. I tried as Highcharts.SeriesColumnOptions and as Highcharts.SeriesLineDataOptions

and this is my code: new Chart({ title: { text: 'Pareto' }, xAxis: { categories: ['a', 'b', 'c'], crosshair: true }, yAxis: [{ title: { text: 'r' } }], series: [{ //line 272 type: 'column', name: 'p1', data: [1,2,3] }, { type: 'line', name: 'p2', data: [3,2,1] }] })

ERROR in mycomp.component.ts(272,9): error TS2322: Type '{ type: string; name: string; data: any; }[]' is not assignable to type '(SeriesAbandsOptions | SeriesAdOptions | SeriesAoOptions | SeriesApoOptions | SeriesAreaOptions | SeriesArearangeOptions | SeriesAreasplineOptions | SeriesAreasplinerangeOptions | ... 82 more ... | SeriesZigzagOptions)[]'.

series: [ { name: "Countries", color: "#E0E0E0", enableMouseTracking: false, type: undefined, },

fixed my problem

[nitinprajapati1404]

series: [ { name: "Countries", color: "#E0E0E0", enableMouseTracking: false, type: undefined, },

fixed my problem

it works for me

but before there is no need to declare type in seris so now why we need to do it?

The above solutions fix the problem, but can somebody please tell how to send the initial data

I am using Angular 8 to render a heatmap, and got an error when setting the series type to 'heatmap' in the app.component.ts file. At this point my chart type was already set to 'heatmap', and in the series, setting the type to undefined fixed by problem. My series looks like this:

series: [
          {
            type: undefined,
            name: 'Curriculum Mapping',
            turboThreshold: 30000,
            data: this.getData(),
            boostThreshold: 30000,
            borderWidth: 0,
            nullColor: '#EFEFEF',
            tooltip: {
                // headerFormat: '<span style="font-size: 10px">{point.key}</span><br/>',
                pointFormat: '<b>{point.custom.event} {point.custom.outcome} {point.value}</b>'
            }
            
          }
        ]

I was struggling with the same problem. Thank you for this post stating that the type needs to be defined in the series.

In my case, I had to provide the exact type (potentially, because I accepted enforce stricter type checking when creating my project).
