# Publish

Make your Maker project available to the world, or keep it private, right from the editor.

{% embed url="<https://vimeo.com/1097293527?share=copy#t=0>" %}

### 1. Publishing Your Project

1. In the top-right corner of the editor, click **Publish**.
2. If you’ve never published before, you’ll see **Publish Now**. Click it to go live.
3. **Pre-publish checks**- When you're ready to publish, Maker will guide you through security and quality checks before going live.&#x20;
   * Admins can turn "Always run pre-publish checks" on or off in the publish modal or under Settings > Advanced. When enabled, it automatically runs the pre-publish checks before every publish. If no issues are found, the publish goes through. If issues are found, it pauses and shows you what was found and how to fix it.
   * In addition to our built-in pre-publish checks, you can create your own custom skill and turn on "Run during pre-publish checks" to include it in the checks. This is a great way to enforce things like brand guidelines automatically before anything goes live, or confirm that trackers are enabled.\

4. After publishing, you can choose how to deploy: either embed the project into an existing page on your website, or connect it to a custom domain. If you share a URL where you want to embed it, Maker will detect the platform and provide step-by-step instructions specific to that platform, along with the embed code you'll need.

### 2. Preview vs. Published

<table data-card-size="large" data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-cover data-type="files"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Live Preview</strong></td><td>Every change you make shows up instantly in the right-hand preview pane. This is your “draft” view—perfect for iterating before anyone else sees it.</td><td><a href="https://16034713-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FM2xSzN6C9hL2ozNM8Yx0%2Fuploads%2FjoSp7usPtzaPG8XvV80B%2Fpreview.png?alt=media&amp;token=5258e617-6399-479e-abdc-0f1b2dff2f73">preview.png</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Published URL</strong></td><td>Once you hit <strong>Publish</strong>, Maker assigns a permanent public URL (or private link) that you can share with teammates or embed on your site.</td><td><a href="https://16034713-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FM2xSzN6C9hL2ozNM8Yx0%2Fuploads%2FTVEEH54ItiQ49WGUo6Ti%2Fpublish2.png?alt=media&amp;token=fe2ad571-4273-451c-9e9e-940bea6d6908">publish2.png</a></td></tr></tbody></table>

### 3. Managing Privacy

* **Make Public/Private**: Click the ▼ arrow on the top left, then choose **Make Private** to restrict access or **Make Public**. This option is available only on the Pro and Team plans.&#x20;

***

### 4. Quick Actions

Click the project name dropdown (upper-left) for shortcut actions:

* **Make Private**
* **Duplicate** (create a copy)
* **Remix** (fork a shareable template)
* **Save to Brand Style** (capture current theme)

> 📌 Tip: Use Duplicate before major refactors so you can always roll back to a known state.

***

### 5. Rollback & Versioning

Maker keeps your code history automatically. If you need to revert:

1. Click the **Version** **History** found under the Publish dropdown.
2. Browse snapshots by timestamp.
3. Click **Rollback** on any version to restore the editor back to that point.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.maker.co/features/publish.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
