Sharepoint online chart using library data not list data

Question

Is it possible to generate a chart webpart that will show data from a sharepoint document library as opposed to a list.

I have over 2000 documents in a library and would like to generate a webpart chart that would show some type of summary of the content. Eg. Total number of files by type. I know that the quick chart feature can be pointed to lists but how can I get something similarly for my document library?

Answer 1

You could build custom chart report by google chart.

Get data by rest api.

My test demo in below thread.
