  As in spread we use showValue (to show/hide date labels ) for charts
  
  And these properties to configure the data labels on chart-
  
  var dataLabels = chart.dataLabels();
  
  dataLabels.showValue = true;
  
  dataLabels.showSeriesName = false;
  
  dataLabels.showCategoryName = false;
  
  dataLabels.color = “#000000”;
  
  var dataLabelPosition = GC.Spread.Sheets.Charts.DataLabelPosition;

  Just want to confirm,
  
  is showValue used for the sunburst chart too? or is there any other property for sunburst? (to show/hide the data labels )

  Hi,

  Yes, the showValue property is also applicable to Sunburst charts for controlling the visibility of data labels (values). There isn’t a separate property specific to Sunburst charts for showing or hiding labels.

  You can use the same approach as with other chart types:

  var labels = chart.dataLabels();
  labels.showValue = !labels.showValue;
  labels.showCategoryName = !labels.showCategoryName;
  chart.dataLabels(labels);

  Refer to the attached sample: Sample.zip for reference — clicking the Toggle Data Labels button will toggle both showValue and showCategoryName.
