@YaOzI answer is partially correct but @jupyterlab/plotly-extension is deprecated and not supported by the official plotly team as you can read here.

This can give you the following error:

ValueError: The extension "@jupyterlab/plotly-extension" does not yet support the current version of JupyterLab.


Conflicting Dependencies:
JupyterLab                        Extension      Package
>=2.2.1 <2.3.0                    >=1.3.0 <2.0.0 @jupyterlab/rendermime-interfaces
See the log file for details:  /tmp/jupyterlab-debug-a3i3t9j4.log

>>> TL;DR:

Following the official advice, this is what worked for me (make sure your kernel is shut down, otherwise you will need to run jupyter lab build):

jupyter labextension install jupyterlab-plotly

And (just to be sure it worked):

jupyter labextension list

May give you something like this:

JupyterLab v2.2.9
Known labextensions:
   app dir: /home/user/anaconda3/envs/your-py-env/share/jupyter/lab
        jupyterlab-dash v0.3.0  enabled  OK
        jupyterlab-plotly v4.14.1  enabled  OK
