You can create a common legend and through generateLegend api, if both the datasets are similar.
First disable the default legends though the options
legend: {
display: false
}
Then use generateLegend() api to get the data labels and set it to a common element.
<ul class="legend">
</ul>
Then add event listeners to the generated elements and target all the charts
document.querySelector('.legend').innerHTML = myChartA.generateLegend();
var legendItems = document.querySelector('.legend').getElementsByTagName('li');
for (var i = 0; i < legendItems.length; i++) {
legendItems[i].addEventListener("click", legendClickCallback.bind(this,i), false);
}
function legendClickCallback(legendItemIndex){
document.querySelectorAll('.myChart').forEach((chartItem,index)=>{
var chart = Chart.instances[index];
var dataItem = chart.data.datasets[legendItemIndex]
if(dataItem.hidden == true || dataItem.hidden == null){
dataItem.hidden = false;
} else {
dataItem.hidden = true;
}
chart.update();
})
}

If anyone using React version of Chartjs particularly react-chartjs-2, I have done it using React Hooks with react-chartjs-2, see the sandbox demo
