Default is with filename "test_plot". :type filepath: str or Path, optional :param format: Extension for figure to be saved as. Ignored if interactive is True and fig is of type plotly.Figure. Defaults to 'png'. :type format: str :param interactive: If True and fig is of type plotly.Figure, saves the fig as interactive instead of static, and format will be set to 'html'. Defaults to False. :type interactive: bool, optional :param return_filepath: Whether to return the final filepath the image is saved to.
