Publishing to the Marketplace

This guide walks you through publishing a data product to the marketplace, making it discoverable to your entire organization.

Prerequisites

Before publishing, ensure your data product meets the quality gates:

1. Description — Add a meaningful description explaining what the data contains and how to use it
2. Owner — Assign an owner who is accountable for the data product
3. Quality Checks — All linked quality checks must be in a passing state

tip

If you haven't set up quality checks yet, see the Quality Management section to get started.

How to Publish

1. Navigate to your data product in the Data Catalog
2. Open the product detail page
3. Click the Publish to Marketplace button in the actions menu
4. Qarion evaluates the readiness checklist:
   • If all gates pass, the product is published immediately
   • If any gate fails, you'll see which requirements are not met
5. Optionally assign a category for marketplace browsing

The product now appears in the organization-wide marketplace for all users to discover.

Publishing Checklist

Gate	Requirement	Status
Description	Non-empty product description	Required
Owner	Owner assigned	Required
Quality	All linked checks passing	Required

Unpublishing

To remove a listing from the marketplace:

1. Go to your product detail page or the My Listings tab
2. Click Unpublish
3. The product is soft-archived from the marketplace (not deleted from the catalog)

note

Unpublishing removes the product from the marketplace browse view but does not delete it from the data catalog. You can re-publish it at any time once it meets the quality gates again.

Programmatic Publishing

You can also publish via the API, SDK, or CLI:

# CLI
qarion marketplace publish --product-id <product-id>

# Check publishing readiness
qarion marketplace check --product-id <product-id>

See the Developer Documentation for full API details.
