 * I would like to add an end point(URL) of an API as a data source for our chart.
 * Is there any way to do this?

 * Can your endpoint return data in CSV format? Is it your endpoint or 3rd party
   service? If it is 3rd party service and you know PHP, then you can use hooks 
   to provide a data for a chart. Read [how-to page](https://github.com/madpixelslabs/visualizer/wiki/How-can-I-populate-chart-series-and-data-dynamically%3F)
   which will help you to understand how to populate chart data.

 * Thank you for your time and reply.
 * I was referring to third party service, I have used hooks and changed the chart
   data.
 * What I am thinking is it will be great if we are providing an option to user 
   to store the URL, so that user can able to add any URL without modifying the 
   code(hook).
