Plotly Object displays as blank in DataBricks

I have a plotly object that should be showing up properly but for some reason it only shows up blank in DataBricks. The object type is:

plotly.graph_objs._figure.Figure

I have tried the following to display the figure:

fig.show()
display(fig)
displayHTML(fig.to_html())

All possible solutions I can think of result in the same thing. Thanks! Btw... Using Plotly Version 4.9

Try using the plot method from plotly.offline. This following is from DataBricks documentation, but Jupyter notebooks have a similar issue where a Plotly graph_object Figure won't render unless you use plotly.offline.

from plotly.offline import plot
import plotly.graph_objects as go

# Instead of simply calling plot(...), store your plot as a variable and pass it to displayHTML().
# Make sure to specify output_type='div' as a keyword argument.
# (Note that if you call displayHTML() multiple times in the same cell, only the last will take effect.)

p = plot(
  [ ## define your go.Figure here ##

  ],
  output_type='div'
)

displayHTML(p)

Worth noting that you can similarly use the plot method from plotly.offline to display plotly.express plots.

This saves a lot of code for simple plots where graph_objects are overkill!

from plotly.offline import plot
import plotly.express as px

p = plot(
    px.scatter(x=[0, 1, 2, 3, 4], y=[0, 1, 4, 9, 16]),
    output_type='div'
    )

displayHTML(p)
