Just to add on this. import plotly.plotly as py will not work anymore. plotly.plotly is deprecated.

Need to install chart_studio

python2 -m pip install chart-studio

This will change into

import chart_studio.plotly as py

Another way is to use py.iplot

plot_url = py.iplot(fig, filename='box-plot')

I had it this way and wanted it to actually show me the graph. So then I took away the 'i' to match your example and it worked :P

Plotly for Python can be configured to render locally inside Jupyter (IPython) notebooks, locally inside your web browser, or remotely in your online Plotly account.

Offline mode will save an HTML file locally and open it inside your web browser.

plot() takes options:

auto_open (default=True) -- Toggle browser options
* True: open this plot in a new browser tab
* False: do not open plot in the browser, but do return the unique 

plot_url = py.plot(fig, filename='box-plot', auto_open=False)
