<h2 id="axis-id">Axis ID</h2>
<p>The properties <code>dataset.xAxisID</code> or <code>dataset.yAxisID</code> have to match the scale properties <code>scales.xAxes.id</code> or <code>scales.yAxes.id</code>. This is especially needed if multi-axes charts are used.</p>

<h1 id="creating-multiple-axes">Creating Multiple Axes</h1>
<p>With cartesian axes, it is possible to create multiple X and Y axes. To do so, you can add multiple configuration objects to the <code>xAxes</code> and <code>yAxes</code> properties. When adding new axes, it is important to ensure that you specify the type of the new axes as default types are <strong>not</strong> used in this case.</p>
<p>In the example below, we are creating two Y axes. We then use the <code>yAxisID</code> property to map the datasets to their correct axes.</p>
<pre><code class="lang-javascript"><span class="hljs-keyword">var</span> myChart = <span class="hljs-keyword">new</span> Chart(ctx, {
type: <span class="hljs-string">&apos;line&apos;</span>,
data: {
datasets: [{
data: [<span class="hljs-number">20</span>, <span class="hljs-number">50</span>, <span class="hljs-number">100</span>, <span class="hljs-number">75</span>, <span class="hljs-number">25</span>, <span class="hljs-number">0</span>],
label: <span class="hljs-string">&apos;Left dataset&apos;</span>,
<span class="hljs-comment">// This binds the dataset to the left y axis</span>
yAxisID: <span class="hljs-string">&apos;left-y-axis&apos;</span>
}, {
data: [<span class="hljs-number">0.1</span>, <span class="hljs-number">0.5</span>, <span class="hljs-number">1.0</span>, <span class="hljs-number">2.0</span>, <span class="hljs-number">1.5</span>, <span class="hljs-number">0</span>],
