# Publish

Publishing a file on the CMS makes it publicly accessible on the website. This action typically means that the file (like images, documents, or videos) is available for users to view, download, or interact with, depending on its type and the CMS settings.

Publishing can also trigger additional processes, such as indexing for search engines or notifying subscribers.

1. To publish a file, simply click on the "Publish" button on the right-hand side.
