A public page. A draft you control.

Open a saved document and choose Publish from the editor’s document actions. The Publish dialog creates a public page and gives you its link. Readers can open that page without joining your workspace.

This is useful for a release note, a short guide, or a project brief that needs a readable URL. It publishes one document; it does not build a multi-page site or connect a custom domain.

After publishing, continue editing the source document as usual. Those edits do not appear on the public page immediately. In the Publish dialog, choose Update to replace the published title and content. The existing URL stays the same while the page remains published.

For a release note, that means you can prepare tomorrow’s changes today without showing an unfinished list to readers. The snapshot and update guide walks through the exact sequence.

Open the public link after publishing. Check headings, code, tables, and any images in the actual page. Use image uploads when you need a hosted figure. An image link needs to be reachable by a reader; a path that only exists on your computer will not become a hosted image just because the Markdown is published.

A public page is not a private review link. Anyone with access to its URL can read it. Remove secrets, private contact details, and internal notes before publishing. Use a technical documentation example if you need a structure for a public guide.

Choose Unpublish to remove the public page. The source file remains in your workspace. Previously saved copies or screenshots are outside that action’s control.

Publishing the file again after unpublishing creates a new publication, so do not rely on getting the old URL back. If you want to keep an existing link working, use Update instead. A plan downgrade does not itself unpublish an existing page, but updating it requires a paid workspace owner plan.
