A pie chart shows how the parts of a whole compare. Each slice is one category, and its size is that category’s share of the total, which makes it a good fit for a handful of categories such as the items in a monthly budget.<\/p>\n

This guide shows you how to make a pie chart in Google Sheets, step by step. You’ll start with a basic chart, then turn it into a 3D or doughnut chart, show percentages or labels, change slice colors, add a title, and edit the chart when your data changes.<\/p>\n

Insert a pie chart from your data range<\/h2>\n

First, let\u2019s create a simple pie chart based on a monthly budget. The table below contains the expense names and amounts used for the pie chart.<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Open the Google Sheets file with the data.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-budget-data.webp” alt=”Pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 monthly budget table with expense names and amounts” title_text=”Monthly budget table with expense names and amounts” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Select the columns with the data.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-select-data.webp” alt=”Make a pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 expense and amount columns selected” title_text=”Expense and amount columns selected” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Go to Insert > Chart.<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> That\u2019s it. Google Sheets recognized the type of data and automatically inserted a pie chart. If it picks a different chart, double-click the chart, open the Setup tab in the Chart editor, and choose Pie chart under Chart type.<\/p>\n

How to customize a Google Sheets pie chart<\/h2>\n

Now that you have a basic pie chart, let\u2019s see how you can customize it to suit your needs and preferences. Follow the instructions below to change your pie chart to a 3D pie chart or a doughnut chart, display the percentages without labels, or change how the labels appear.<\/p>\n

Make a 3D pie chart<\/h3>\n

Double-click your current pie chart to get the \u2018Chart editor\u2019 sidebar.<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Click the \u2018Customize\u2019 tab in the \u2018Chart editor\u2019.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-customize-tab.webp” alt=”3D pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 Customize tab in the Chart editor” title_text=”Customize tab in the Chart editor” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Click \u2018Chart style\u2019 to expand the options.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-chart-style.webp” alt=”3D pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 Chart style options with the 3D checkbox” title_text=”Chart style options with the 3D checkbox” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Check the \u201c3D\u201d checkbox to turn it into a 3D pie chart.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-3d-checked.webp” alt=”3D pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 3D checkbox ticked and the chart drawn in 3D” title_text=”3D checkbox ticked and the chart drawn in 3D” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> Alternatively, you can change it under \u2018Chart type\u2019 in the \u2018Setup\u2019 tab.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-3d-chart-type.webp” alt=”3D pie chart in Google Sheets \u2014 3D pie chart picked under Chart type” title_text=”3D pie chart picked under Chart type” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

Make a doughnut chart<\/h3>\n

If you prefer, you can quickly turn your pie chart into a doughnut chart.<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Double-click your pie chart to get the \u2018Chart editor\u2019 sidebar. In the \u2018Setup\u2019 tab, click the drop-down under \u2018Chart type\u2019.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-chart-type-menu.webp” alt=”Doughnut chart in Google Sheets \u2014 Chart type drop-down menu open in the Setup tab” title_text=”Chart type drop-down menu open in the Setup tab” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Scroll down to the \u2018Pie\u2019 area and select the doughnut chart.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-select-doughnut.webp” alt=”Doughnut chart in Google Sheets \u2014 doughnut chart selected in the Pie area” title_text=”Doughnut chart selected in the Pie area” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> That\u2019s it. Your doughnut chart is ready.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-doughnut-chart.webp” alt=”Doughnut chart in Google Sheets \u2014 budget data shown as a doughnut chart” title_text=”Budget data shown as a doughnut chart” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

Show percentages on the slices<\/h3>\n

As you saw in the first section, Google Sheets automatically adds labels with the category name and the corresponding percentage. However, you may prefer to display the percentages directly in the corresponding slices of the pie chart.<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Double-click your pie chart to access the \u2018Chart editor\u2019 sidebar.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-chart-editor.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 Chart editor open on the Setup tab” title_text=”Chart editor open on the Setup tab” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Click the \u2018Customize\u2019 tab, then on \u2018Pie chart\u2019 to expand the options.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-pie-chart-options.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 Pie chart options in the Customize tab” title_text=”Pie chart options in the Customize tab” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Click the dropdown menu under \u2018Slice label\u2019 and select \u2018Percentage\u2019.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-slice-label-menu.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 Percentage in the Slice label drop-down menu” title_text=”Percentage in the Slice label drop-down menu” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> That\u2019s it. Since the percentages are shown within the pie slices, you don\u2019t need to display them in the legend.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-percentages.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 percentages shown inside each slice” title_text=”Percentages shown inside each slice” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> Under \u2018Customize\u2019, click \u2018Legend\u2019 to display the options.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-legend-options.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 Legend options in the Customize tab” title_text=”Legend options in the Customize tab” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

6.<\/strong> Next, click the dropdown menu under \u2018Position\u2019 and select one of the options. For this example, I want to display the legend to the left of the pie chart.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-legend-position.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 Left chosen in the legend Position menu” title_text=”Left chosen in the legend Position menu” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

7.<\/strong> That\u2019s it. Your pie chart has a legend to identify the different categories, and the percentages are displayed directly in the slices.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/static.sheetgo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/pie-chart-google-sheets-legend-left.webp” alt=”Google Sheets pie chart with percentages \u2014 legend on the left and percentages in the slices” title_text=”Legend on the left and percentages in the slices” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n

Show labels on the slices<\/h3>\n

You can do this if you prefer not to show the values or percentages and only want the labels.<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> In the \u2018Customize\u2019 tab of the \u2018Chart editor\u2019, click \u2018Pie chart\u2019 to expand the options.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Click the dropdown menu under \u2018Slice label\u2019 and select \u2018Label\u2019.<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> That\u2019s it. The labels are now included within each slice. To remove the legend on the left, click \u2018Legend\u2019 in the sidebar to expand the options.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Double-click the chart, open the Customize tab in the Chart editor, and click Pie slice.<\/li>\n
  2. Pick a slice from the drop-down menu, then choose a new color under Color.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      How to add a pie chart to Google Docs<\/h2>\n

      Google Docs doesn’t build charts on its own. A chart in a document comes from a Google Sheets file, and you can add one in two ways.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. To reuse a chart you already made, open your document and go to Insert > Chart > From Sheets. Choose the spreadsheet, select the pie chart, keep Link to spreadsheet checked, and click Import.<\/li>\n
      2. To start from scratch, go to Insert > Chart > Pie. Docs adds a sample chart and creates a new spreadsheet for its data. Click the chart, then the link icon, and choose Open source to replace the sample data with yours.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        When the data in the spreadsheet changes, click Update on the chart in your document to refresh it.<\/p>\n

        Conclusion<\/h2>\n

        As you have seen, pie charts visually represent the proportions that make up a whole. This makes them ideal to use when dealing with a small number of categories or values. However, if you have too many categories, it can become visually confusing. In other words, the pie will be divided into so many slices it will be difficult to read and interpret.<\/p>\n
