Publish or unpublish an experience

Put a trip live on your public trips list and widgets, or take it back to draft without touching existing bookings.

A new experience is a private Draft. Publishing puts it on its public trip page, your trips list and your widgets straight away. You do not need a departure to publish: you can put the page live first and add dates later.

Before you start

  • Your workspace must be activated, with a card on file. Until then the Publish button is disabled. See Setting up your workspace.

  • Save your work. Publishing checks the saved experience, so unsaved edits do not count.

Publish

  1. Go to Settings → Experiences and open the experience.

  2. Check the Completeness bar. Click What's left? and finish everything under Required.

    The Completeness bar opened, showing Required, Recommended and Stand out items
  3. Choose Actions → Publish.

    The Actions menu with Publish outlined

If a required item is missing, Samba lists what to complete and nothing changes. See Why can't I publish my experience?

Recommended items, such as a cover image, highlights, an FAQ or a first departure, make your page stronger and raise the score. They never block publishing.

Unpublish

Choose Actions → Unpublish. The experience goes back to Draft and leaves your trip page, trips list and widgets. Its links show a "not found" page. Existing bookings and departures are not affected.
