To get the context of the data, you can import the data to preview. Selecting data preview is same as [Select Data](/analytics/create-chart/function/1.-how-to-import-data/select-data.md) in Function mode.

{% hint style="info" %}
Please notice that in Python mode, the data and the time range you selected to preview will not affect the actual Python code written.
{% endhint %}
