Syntax: How to Assign a Series to an Axis
series:
[
    {
      series: snumber,
      yaxisAssignment: ynumber,
   }
]

where:

snumber

Is a zero-based series number. If the series does not exist in the chart, the property is ignored.

ynumber

Assigns the specified series to the y- or y2-axis. Valid values are:

  • 1, which assigns the series to the y-axis. This is the default value.
  • 2, which assigns the series to the y2-axis.
