Publish and keep improving
What is a published app?
A published app is a version of an application made available at an address for its intended audience. Publishing makes a chosen experience accessible beyond its working preview.
How it works.
Publishing connects a version of an app to the place where people use it. Access can be public or restricted by the app’s own account rules. A published interface may rely on records, files and services that have their own lifecycle. Review these together before sharing the address.
Treat publishing as a useful checkpoint. Run the main task, check which records are visible and make sure the result is ready for the intended people. Keep improving the app afterward. Before restoring an older version, understand what the restore changes and what information remains in storage.
- Review the intended version before sharing it.
- Publishing and access control answer different questions.
- Restoring an interface does not necessarily restore data.
What this looks like.
- A creator shares a public portfolio after reviewing its pages.
- A company opens a customer portal to a small pilot group.
- A team publishes a dashboard and checks it with a restricted account.
The pieces that matter.
Preview
The place to inspect and refine work before making the next version available.
Published address
The link people use to reach the chosen experience.
Access and continuity
The permissions, records and services that need to keep working as the app changes.
Before you begin.
Public address, private records
A reachable sign-in page does not mean every visitor should see the same information.
A restore needs a scope
Check whether it affects files, code, configuration or records before using it as a recovery step.
In your App Cloud.
Exepad brings creation and ongoing use together in Your App Cloud. Review your app, publish the intended version, and keep its data, models and services aligned as you improve it.

A few useful distinctions.
Does publishing mean anyone can see all my data?
No. Reachability and authorization are different. Configure the intended access and test it using accounts with different permissions.
Does restoring an older app recover deleted data?
Do not assume so. Version history and data recovery are separate concerns. Check the available restore operation and keep appropriate data copies before making destructive changes.
