Publish a Publish Request

Publishing a Publish Request means deploying all the changes included in the change items of the request to the viewer so that they will be visible to your users. Changes could include new or modified content and even deleted topics. 

When you are assigned as a reviewer of a publish request, you will be notified through in-app notifications and emails (if you have agreed to receive emails). You will find your notifications on the alert bell icon next to the profile icon on the top right.

Clicking a PR notification will take you directly to that Publish Request so that you can review the changes, approve, and finally publish the PR if allowed.

Note: In mandatory approvals enforced by a defined process, you can only publish a PR if there is no other step afterward. Otherwise, the publish button will be disabled, and you need to wait for further requirements to be met. 

You can also open the PR list and review, approve or publish each PR as follows:

  1. In the content editor, Click the document menu on the top left >> Publish Requests. (The number of open PRs are shown in a red circle next to the Publish requests on the main menu)
  2. Open the PR you want to review.
  3. Open the changes tab to see topic changes.
  4. Click the Approve button on the top right if the topics are ready for publication.
  5. Click the PUBLISH button on the top right.

You can also publish your topics directly from the content editor page.
