Hello Kasper,

But I'm not getting end result. Please find below the structure that I have made. Please let me know if I'm missing anything.

Kindly suggest.

Thanks & Regards,

Hey Kumar,

"Not getting the end result" is pretty generic. Where are you stuck specifically? Are there any error messages you're seeing? Have you tried the browser's devtools to see if there are any errors there?

Create a view that will generate the Plotly chart. In the view, you can use the Plotly library to create a chart object and return it as an HTML div string. Here is an example view:

from django.shortcuts import render
import plotly.graph_objs as go
import plotly.offline as opy
from django.http import HttpResponse

def my_chart(request):
    trace1 = go.Bar(x=[1, 2, 3], y=[4, 5, 6])
    data = [trace1]
    layout = go.Layout(title='My Chart')
    fig = go.Figure(data=data, layout=layout)
    div = opy.plot(fig, auto_open=False, output_type='div')
    return HttpResponse(div)
