A plot step allow you to generate from a Python script a plotly figure. Plotting data is only done by default during experiment mode. Automatic background execution will skip any plot step unless execution_options plot is set to True.

They function the same way as the script step except they cannot have dataframe output. To see how to define your plotly function please refer to Scripts section

Sample plot step definition

{
  "type": "plot",
  "config":
  {
    "function" : "describe_df"
  },
  "inputs": [
    { "dataframe" : "sum_dataframe" }
  ]
}

In this example, the dataframe named sum_dataframe will be plot using the function describe_df. The “config” is identical to a “script” step and can contain e.g. a ‘features_mapping’.
