The publish flow

Publishing is a single explicit gate: until you publish, nothing about a project is publicly reachable.

An unpublished project is fully functional for you, invisible to the world:

  • Public viewer, share links and AR are disabled until you publish.
  • The in-panel preview uses a temporary private link only you can see — safe to polish with the team while the outside URL stays a 404.

Publish from the project — the toggle reports its state (Published — click to unpublish). Unpublishing takes the public surfaces down again; your content stays intact in the panel.

The published state is a frozen snapshot: it cannot drift while you edit. Continued work happens on a draft — create or select one to edit, and the public keeps seeing the last published version until you publish again. This is what makes “polish Monday, publish Friday” safe on a live storefront.

One publish action powers every distribution surface with the same state:

Plan note: publishing follows your workspace plan, and lapsed subscriptions get a public grace window — see Plans & billing.
