Product Statuses & Publishing

Products in Veribl follow a lifecycle from creation to publication. Understanding product statuses helps you manage your catalog and control what consumers can see.

Product statuses

  • Draft — the product is being set up and is not visible to consumers. All new products start as drafts.
  • Published — the product is live and accessible via QR code. Consumers can view the product page, register, and use AI Support Chat.
  • Archived — the product has been removed from your active catalog but its data is preserved. Consumers scanning the QR code see a limited page.

Publish a product

When your product is ready to go live:

  1. Open the product from Products
  2. Review the product details and content sections
  3. Click Publish in the top toolbar
  4. The product is now live — consumers can access it via QR code

Tip: Preview the consumer product page before publishing by clicking Preview. This shows exactly what consumers will see.

Unpublish a product

To take a product offline temporarily:

  1. Open the published product
  2. Click Unpublish in the top toolbar
  3. The product returns to draft status

Existing QR codes will show a "product unavailable" message. You can republish at any time without generating new QR codes.

Archive a product

To remove a product from your active catalog:

  1. Open the product
  2. Click Archive (or select multiple products and use bulk archive)
  3. The product moves to the Archive tab

Archived products are preserved for records but are no longer actively managed. View archived products under Products > Archive.

Restore an archived product

  1. Navigate to Products > Archive
  2. Find the product and click Restore
  3. The product returns to draft status, ready to be edited and republished
