# Publish

Once your map is ready to share, you can upload it so other players can download and play it. This page covers the basic publishing so that other players can play your creation.

## Publishing your map

1. In the **Asset Browser**, select your scene file. When it is selected, its settings will appear in the **Inspector**.
2. In the inspector, enable publishing by clicking the **Enable Publishing** checkbox.

## Editing your map page

On the website, you can continue editing your map details. This includes the **title**, **description**, **tags**, **categories**, as well as adding a **thumbnail** and **screenshots**.

Once published, your map should appear in game and in the cloud asset browser for other people to find and play.
