You can build a bar chart like this. I export your JSON data here and make an ajax request to fetch the data and using it in charts.

var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
  var dataset = {
    type: 'bar',
    data: {
      labels: [],
      datasets: [{
        label: 'SOCIAL MEDIA OUTBOUND',
        backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 149, 255, 0.70)',
        borderColor: 'rgba(0, 149, 255, 0.75)',
        hoverBackgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 149, 255, 1)',
        hoverBorderColor: 'rgba(0, 149, 255, 1)',
        data: []
      }]
    },
    options: {
      scales: {
        yAxes: [{
          ticks: {
            beginAtZero: true
          }
        }]
      }
    }
  }

  var getData = function(chartdata) {
    $.ajax({
      url: 'https://api.myjson.com/bins/fadwx',
      success: function(data) {
        //console.log(data);
        data.forEach((el, i) => {
          chartdata.data.labels.push(el.CreatedDate);
          chartdata.data.datasets[0].data.push(el.NumLeads);
        });
        var myChart = new Chart(ctx, chartdata);

      }
    });
  };
  getData(dataset);
