AI & Workflows
What is the difference between Save and Publish your AI agent?
Updated May 5, 2026
Save and Publish control whether your changes are just stored or actually live for users.
Save
Save = store your changes (not live yet)
- Saves your work in the builder
- Updates are not visible to users
- Safe to make edits without affecting the live agent
Publish
Publish = make it live
- Launches your AI agent (first time) or
- Pushes your latest changes to the live (production) version
- Changes are immediately visible to users
Versioning (important)
Every time you publish:
- A new version is created
- You can name the version and add release notes
- All previous versions are saved and accessible
- You can revert to an older version anytime
Permissions
- Owner → can Save and Publish
- Editor → can Save (cannot Publish)
- Viewer → cannot Save or Publish
Simple rule
Save = work in progress
Publish = live for users
