      Publish or Unpublish a Conversation

      Overview

      Publishing allows participants to access your Conversation via their participant link. You must Publish your Conversation in order for participants to join and gain access. You can either manually publish your Conversation, or turn on Auto Publish which will automatically publish your Conversation 10 minutes before the scheduled start time. Anyone who has edit access to a Conversation will be able to publish and unpublish Conversations.

      Auto Publish

      We recommend utilizing Auto Publish as it eliminates the need to manually publish your Conversation. You can toggle it on at any point before the conversation is published or started. If the conversation is already published or started, you will not be able to turn on Auto Publish.
      1. Log into your Remesh account and locate the Conversation you would like to Publish. 
      2. Navigate to the Schedule page and toggle on Auto Save, then click Save.
      3. If you hover over the Publish button after turning on Auto Publish, you will see a message indicating that the conversation will automatically be published 10 minutes before the conversation is scheduled to start.

      You must complete setting up the rest of your conversation in order for the conversation to successfully Publish. If your conversation is incomplete or contains errors that would prevent it from publishing, you will see an error notification on the platform and you will receive an email warning in advance of the scheduled start time.

      Manual Publish

      If you are manually publishing, we recommend doing so whenever you are certain that the Conversation will be conducted, as you can continue to make edits.
      1. Log into your Remesh account and locate the Conversation you would like to Publish. 
      2. Review your conversation set up and discussion guide.

      3. Once you Publish, you can still make edits to the entire Conversation. Certain time-sensitive fields (listed below) will lock 10 minutes before the scheduled start time.

        1. Basic Details - Language

        2. Basic Details - Introduction

        3. Audience Setup (Note: certain Audience features can still be used, including uploading participant data, but the setup selection will be locked at this point)

        4. Discussion Guide - Onboarding Polls

        5. Discussion Guide - Import

      4. Click the blue "Publish" button either in the Build view or Live view. In the Build view, the "Publish" button is in the upper right corner and in the Live view, the "Publish" button is in the center of the page.
