How Do I Publish and Share a Test?

Publishing

A test starts as a draft and must be published before anyone can take it.

1. Open your test and click Publish in the header.
2. A summary appears covering basic info, schedule, experience settings, security, sharing, and the question count.
3. If groups are assigned, check Notify to send those members a notification about the test.
4. Confirm to go live.

If something required is missing, you're taken straight to the tab that needs fixing. A test whose availability window already ended can't be published until you update its schedule.

After publishing

The configuration locks: schedule, duration, experience, security, questions, and sharing can't change while the test is live, and the editor shows a read-only notice.

To make changes, click Unpublish in the header. The test returns to draft and becomes editable again; no one can start it while it's unpublished.

Choosing who can take it

In the Share tab, pick a sharing mode:

• Public: anyone with the link, or anyone in your organization, can take it.
• Private: only members of the groups you select. Choose groups from the searchable list, or create one on the spot with New Group.

See Create Groups to set groups up ahead of time.

Ways to share

From the Share tab:

• Copy the participant link with the copy button, or use the share button to hand it to another app directly.
• Download a QR code as a PNG image for printouts and projector slides.

The same link is also available from your tests list through the three-dot menu under Copy link.

There are no separate access codes: having the link and being signed in is what grants entry, and Private tests additionally verify group membership.

What happens next

People who receive the link sign in, pass the pre-flight checks, and begin. Walkthrough in Join a Test.
