Description

On MATLAB I run :
websave('MATLAB-Online-master.zip', 'https://github.com/plotly/MATLAB-Online/archive/master.zip');
unzip('MATLAB-Online-master.zip');
addpath(genpath('MATLAB-Online-master'));
Then run:
plotlysetup_offline();
and got:
plotly:notFound

Shoot! It looks like MATLAB is having trouble finding the current version
of Plotly. Please make sure that the Plotly API folder is in the same
directory as plotlysetup.m. Questions? Ask https://community.plotly.com/c/api/matlab/

when checking plotlyset_upoffline.m, I run:
which('plotlysetup')
got:
not found 'plotlysetup'

My MATLAB version is 2022b on windows.

Research direction

Start with the MATLAB-Online-master extraction and the reported plotlysetup_offline() and which('plotlysetup') commands. Check whether plotlysetup.m and the Plotly API folder are present and discoverable on the MATLAB path; done means the setup command completes without plotly:notFound.
