After you have published/unpublished media you might sometimes need to empty your browser cache or force refresh your browser.

NOTE: It can take some time for your media to get published as they will be put in a job queue on our servers.

Add filters to your publishing channels

You can also restrict publishing via using filters on the publishing channels. Filters are baed on the metadata addede to the assets and the asset need to meet the requirements of the added filter to be allowed for publishing. This can for example be used with Security properties, such as permissions of use. 

In the publishing channel settings under the administrator Tab, add a filter and the data fulfilment the published assets need to meet. 

NOTE: you need to be an administrator to be able to add the publishing channel filter.
