Limitations with Jupyter Notebooks in Workspaces

This documentation is for Dash Enterprise.
Dash Enterprise is the fastest way to write & deploy Dash apps and
Jupyter notebooks.
10% of the Fortune 500 uses Dash Enterprise to productionize AI and
data science apps. Find out if your company is using Dash Enterprise.

This page applies to Dash Enterprise 5. If your organization uses Dash Enterprise 4, view the Workspaces docs at https://<your-dash-enterprise-server>/Docs/workspaces.

Downloading notebooks: Downloading notebooks using File > Download as currently doesn’t work.
Viewing figures after reopening a notebook: Closing and reopening a notebook causes Plotly figures to not display when the cell is run individually. To resolve this issue, restart the kernel and run all cells.
You can do this by selecting Restart & Run All <img>
in the Editor toolbar or by going to Kernel > Restart & Run All in the menu bar.
Dash app server location: In Dash versions prior to 1.15, when visualizing the output of a Jupyter Notebook Dash app in another browser tab or in preview mode, with either app.run_server(mode="external") or app.run_server(), Dash prints http://0.0.0.0:8050 instead of the host name.

Dash app running on <a href="http://0.0.0.0:8050/workspace/view/workspace-<appname>">http://0.0.0.0:8050/workspace/view/workspace-<appname></a>

Replace 0.0.0.0:8050 with your Dash Enterprise domain URL when accessing the app in another tab or preview mode as a workaround:

<a href="https://<your-dash-enterprise-server>/workspace/view/workspace-<appname>">https://<your-dash-enterprise-server>/workspace/view/workspace-<appname></a>

Upgrade to latest versions of dash and jupyter_dash to resolve this issue.

Note: Don’t forget to update your requirements.txt file by first changing the versions of the required packages accordingly.

Upgrading dash:
bash pip uninstall dash pip install dash

Upgrading jupyter-dash:
bash pip uninstall jupyter-dash pip install jupyter-dash
