A way to pass Plotly charts from an IPython Notebook to dashboards.ly

In your Notebook, add something like this:

import plotly.plotly as py      # Every function in this module will communicate with an external plotly server
foo = py.plot({                      # use `py.iplot` inside the ipython notebook
    "data": [{
        "x": [1, 2, 3, 4],
        "y": [4, 2, 5, 10]
    }],
    "layout": {
        "title": "a"
    }
}, filename='foo/01',      # name of the file as saved in your plotly account
   privacy='public')            # 'public' | 'private' | 'secret': Learn more: https://plot.ly/python/privacy

To send to dashboards.ly, call dashboard.create(plots, number of columns):

import plotly_dashboard
plots = [foo, bar, baz]         # You can also pass in strings of URLs of plots instead of variables
plotly_dashboard.create(plots, 2) # 2 here is the number of columns per row on the dashboard
