Release
Make your connector available to end-users — either globally or for specific accounts.
Once your connector is synced to production, you need to make it available to end-users. There are two ways: enable access for specific entities, or release globally.
Enable access
Use Change access to make the connector available to specific accounts, projects, or sites. This is the right choice when:
- The connector is intended for specific customers
- You want a staged rollout — test with a few accounts before going wide
- The connector is for internal use only
You can grant and revoke access at any time. Each entity you enable must be in the connector's target scope (configured during sync to prod).
Release globally
Use Release to make the connector available to all users on the Productsup platform. This is the right choice when the connector is ready for general use.
Releasing globally clears all specific access grants. If you previously enabled access for specific accounts, projects, or sites, those lists are reset when you release. This is a one-way transition — if you need to go back to limited access, you'll need to unrelease first and then re-enable specific access.
Unreleasing
You can unrelease a connector to remove it from global availability. After unreleasing:
- The connector is no longer visible to new users
- Previously granted specific access is not restored — you need to re-enable access manually
- Sites that already have the connector assigned continue to work
Prerequisites
Before you can release or enable access, the connector version must:
- Be synced to production
- Have a platform connector ID (created during the sync process)
Summary
| Action | Scope | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| Change access | Specific accounts, projects, or sites | Internal connectors, staged rollouts, customer-specific connectors |
| Release | All platform users | Connector is ready for general availability |
| Unrelease | Removes global availability | Need to pull back a released connector |
