Save Jupyter Notebook with Plotly Express widgets displaying

Question

I have a Jupyter notebook (python) where I used plotly express to plot in the notebook for analysis purposes. I want to share this notebook with non-coders, and have the interactive visuals be available still - but it does not seem to work.

I tried following recommendations made here but even after saving widgets state and using nbconvert, when I open the new HTML file, the visuals are not available.

A sample line of plotting can be seen below:

import plotly_express as px
fig = px.scatter(
    df, 
    x='size', 
    y='size_y', 
    color='clients',
    hover_data=['id'], 
    marginal_y="histogram", 
    marginal_x="histogram"
)
fig.show()

Answer 1

After running plotly.offline.init_notebook_mode() in a cell, you can export the notebook with full interactivity via the file menu: File --> Export Notebook as... --> Export Notebook to HTML.
