Plotly example in document returns error in a Fabric notebook.

[bekimd-ms]

[Enter feedback here] The Plotly example doesn't work or is incomplete. You may need to add a section on how to install and configure Plotly so it can actually produce interactive HTML graphs in a Fabric notebook. It looks like plotly is trying to find files that are not accessible from the notebook.

 84 path = os.path.join("package_data", "plotly.min.js")

---> 85 plotlyjs = pkgutil.get_data("plotly", path).decode("utf-8") 86 return plotlyjs

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'decode'

@JeneZhang - can you take a look at this error? This seems related to Plotly viz in notebooks.

Followed up with assignee.

I've tested the example both in a Fabric notebook and in an Azure Synapse notebook. I used brand new accounts with no previous configurations. Both worked exactly as expected with the code copied and pasted from the article.

I'm not sure why you're running into an error.

It may have been that there was a bug that has since been resolved. Please try this again! And-- if you continue to have an issue, reach out to Fabric support and create a case.
