# Configure Key Values

The [topic configuration process](/crystal-console/topics-configuration/configure.md) can be very articulated, depending on the insights you want to get out of your topic.

If you want to add a specific insight to your chart, you can click on **Add** **key value** and set the parameters to highlight a summary value of the measure column included in your topic. Each column with numerical data type will provide the option to add a key value, and **you will be allowed to choose the column you want to add the key value** to**.**

For example, if you are measuring **sales**, you could feature the average sales over the period of time selected as a key value to give an immediate idea of the measure.

You also have the option to apply **a delta** to the numeric value if there is a time series column present in the topic’s data tables. The delta can be shown as a value or percentage, representing the data change compared to the previous period or the same period of the previous year (**year over year**).

You need to specify if the delta is expressed **in a percentage** or **an integer** and you can also specify if the associated positive and negative growth is based on your data. An increase in costs for your situation might represent a negative impact, therefore it would make sense to have it represented in red. In another scenario, an increase in value could represent a positive event and therefore it would make sense to have it in green.

Once you save your key value, you will find it represented in the configuration view. You can always remove it or click on it to make changes. You can add as many key values as you need, just remember you can have **only one per column per function,** with the option to choose **the column you want to add the key value** to**.**

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.igenius.ai/crystal-console/topics-configuration/configure/key-values.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
