Publish Request
Publish Requests (PR) give you the option to have your documents/topics reviewed before presenting them to your users. In other words, you can get other members' approvals or have a fresh pair of eyes checking your document before finalizing your publication. A Publish Request includes:
- The title of the request
- A description of the request
- Topic changes
- A comment section for discussing the PR
- The list of reviewers

Publish Requests could include optional or mandatory approvals. In optional approvals, you decide to have another member's approval, while this is not a compulsory step for publishing a document in your organization. Moreover, any organization member can create, edit, close, or reopen an optional Publish Request.
However, mandatory approvals have been defined as a part of a process, and every change included in the process has to go through this step before getting published. Therefore, there is no direct publishing available for such cases. You can create a Publish Request instead.
★ | Note: If there is an approval process assigned to your documents, you have to create Publish Request for mandatory approvals. |
