I got: chart_studio.exceptions.PlotlyRequestError: Authentication credentials were not provided

Question

I am working locally(in my pc) just testing and learning PLOTLY 3.7.5. with anaconda env active. The code example is given by plotly

Code:

import plotly.plotly as py  # Here all begins (Look)
# import chart_studio.plotly as py  # inted of the line bellow (optional to  try)
import plotly.graph_objs as go
import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

if __name__ == '__main__':
    df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plotly/datasets/master/finance-charts-apple.csv')
    trace = go.Ohlc(x=df['Date'],
                    open=df['AAPL.Open'],
                    high=df['AAPL.High'],
                    low=df['AAPL.Low'],
                    close=df['AAPL.Close'])
    data = [trace]
    py.iplot(data, filename='simple_ohlc')

note (Look): I got the warning error:

'please install the chart-studio package and use the chart_studio.plotly module instead.'

this [issue](https://community.plot.ly/t/solved-update-to-plotly-4-0-0-broke-application/26526) seems related — gold_cy, Nov 25 '19 at 12:36

You need plotly's offline mode to obviate authentication - following https://stackoverflow.com/a/44694854/1021819, rather do:

from plotly.offline import iplot

use below line of code before hitting iplot

cf.go_offline() #will make cufflinks offline
cf.set_config_file(offline=False, world_readable=True)

'chart_studio.plotly' is still "one" library you're importing... "as py" doesn't count as second library because its only a renaming... what is missing... – ZF007 Dec 28 '19 at 18:34
