 ### Updated
 - Update plotly.js from version 3.6.0 to version 4.0.0 [[#5673](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/pull/5673)]. This is a major-version release with many changes. See the [plotly.js release notes](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/releases/tag/v4.0.0) for the full list. The most significant changes include:
-  - Add `quiver` trace type to visualize vector fields using arrows [[#7710](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7710), [#7945](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/issues/7945)], with thanks to @degzhaus for the contribution!

   - Add "Share Chart" modebar button for generating a chart-sharing link via Plotly Cloud [[#7909](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7909)]
   - Remove `scattermapbox`, `choroplethmapbox`, `densitymapbox` trace types, the `mapbox` subplot, and the `mapboxAccessToken` config option [[#7860](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7860)]. Use the equivalent `*map` traces instead.

   - Replace `country-regex` with `country-iso-search` to search for country names in choropleth, scattergeo traces [[#7856](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7856)]. Most country names are handled exactly the same; a small number of legacy entries have been removed.
   - Change `layout.geo.fitbounds` default from `false` to `'locations'` [[#7895](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7895)]. `geo` subplots will now auto-fit the initial view to the trace data by default.

 ### Updated
 - Update plotly.js from version 3.6.0 to version 3.7.0. See the plotly.js [release notes](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/releases/tag/v3.7.0) for more information [[#5639](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/pull/5639)]. Notable changes include:
-  - Rename `sendDataToCloud` modebar button to `sendChartToCloud`, and update to upload chart to Plotly Cloud [[#7802](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7802), [#7852](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7852), [#7854](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7854)]. NOTE: The Plotly Cloud endpoint for receiving charts is not yet functional, so this button won't complete the upload.
-  - Fix stale `scattergl` error bars after toggling traces with mixed error bar visibility [[#7773](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/issues/7773)], with thanks to @JulienIcon for the contribution!
-  - Fix geo `fitbounds` to choose a compact longitude range when point data straddles the antimeridian [[#7837](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/7837)], with thanks to @SharadhNaidu for the contribution!
