First-app publish checklist

Start-here only. After you can tick every box, use the full Publish & share hub for domains, collaborators, and white-label.

This page replaces the old Get started link to /basics/share-app/publish (that URL 404s).

What this is

Section titled “What this is”

A short path from “the builder looks right” to “someone else can open the app.” Publishing writes a version users can load. Autosave in the builder is not publish.

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”
  • You have at least one screen in navigation.
  • Notion data you care about has been synced once.
  • If the app is private, Users has a login method and at least one test user.

Checklist

Section titled “Checklist”
  1. Open the app in the builder.
  2. Use View as (when the app is private) to confirm the first user can see the home screen. See View as any user.
  3. Click Publish (top of the builder).
  4. Wait until the publish toast succeeds. A 409 conflict means another tab saved first — see Save conflict (409).
  5. Copy the app link from Publish & share.
  6. Open the link in a private window. Confirm login (if private) and the first list.
  7. Only then send the link to a real user.

Section titled “Full reference →”

Publish & share — link, custom domain, collaborators, Remove NotionApps label, and what happens to users after a new version.

Next: Make it private if guests should not see the data. Or stay on the hub if you need a custom domain.
