Plotly update data

Question

Okay so i have the following code:

    var element = document.getElementById(scope.changeid);

function getData(division,redraw) {
    var employeeData = [];         


        

Answer 1

According to a Plotly community moderator (see the first answer here), Plotly.restyle is faster than Plotly.redraw and Plotly.newPlot.

Example taken from the link:

var data = [{
    x: ['VALUE 1'], // in reality I have more values...
    y: [20],
    type: 'bar'
}];
Plotly.newPlot('PlotlyTest', data);

function adjustValue1(value)
{
    Plotly.restyle('PlotlyTest', 'y', [[value]]);
}
