Publish a channel and its page

Publishing opens the channel page and embedding. Direct HLS links don't depend on it.

The Publication tabThe Publication tab
Publication: the published flag, description, appearance and page layout
  1. On the Publication tab, turn on Published → Save changes.
  2. Description — the name, description (Markdown) and tags for the channel page.
  3. Storefront appearance — turn off Inherit from account and choose a Watch page layout: On air, with an on-air badge and Now and Up next lines, or Minimal — player only for a lobby screen.

Note

An unpublished channel isn't available on the watch page or in the embedded player, even while it's on air. This flag doesn't close direct HLS links — use the access policy for those.
