+### Missing Value in the Data
+
+[connectgaps](https://plot.ly/python/reference/#scatter-connectgaps) determines if missing values in the provided data are shown as a gap in the graph or not. In [this tutorial](https://plot.ly/python/filled-area-on-mapbox/#multiple-filled-areas-with-a-scattermapbox-trace), we showed how to take benefit of this feature and illustrate multiple areas in mapbox. 
+
+```python
+import plotly.graph_objects as go 
+
+fig = go.Figure(go.Scatter(
+    x = [1,2,3,4,5,7],
+    y = [2,3,4,None, 5,8],
+    connectgaps = False))
+
+fig.show()
+```
