Accessing bokeh plot from local network

I am attempting to share my plots with my colleagues. I run “bokeh serve --show myfile.py” and I can view my data on my computer, but when I try from other computers on the network, I get “403: forbidden”. Is there a way to make it public?

Yes, you need to add a --host option with the IP or hostname that users will connect to, as described here:

  http://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/docs/user_guide/cli.html#network-configuration

By default, Bokeh server only accepts connections made to "localhost" unless explicitly configured to be more open.
