Publishing reports
Make a report public with clear attribution, understand PII review, and learn what each report status means.
Publishing reports
By default, your synthesis stays private to your account. When you want others to read it without duplicating your research, use the publishing flow: choose visibility, pass automated checks and review, and get a stable public URL you can share.
Making a report public
Look for Make Public (or equivalent) on the report. That starts the flow to publish -- not an instant toggle -- because Parallect needs your choices on attribution and a quick safety pass before the page goes live.
Attribution options
You decide how the published page credits the work:
- Profile -- The report is associated with your Parallect profile, so readers can see it came from you (subject to your profile settings).
- Anonymous -- The content is public, but not tied to your public identity in the same way -- useful when you want shareability without personal branding.
Pick the option that matches how you'll share the link and how comfortable you are with attribution in that context.
PII detection and review
Before publication, Parallect runs PII detection to flag emails, phone numbers, or other sensitive patterns that shouldn't ship in a public document. You'll have a chance to review findings and fix or confirm content.
Depending on policy and risk, some reports may enter a pending review state while the system or a reviewer validates the submission -- especially if something looks ambiguous after automated scanning.
Treat publishing as "the whole world can see this." Remove or redact anything you wouldn't want indexed, quoted, or forwarded -- even if you later unpublish or change visibility.
Report statuses
Reports move through a small set of states. The exact labels may vary slightly in the UI, but the ideas are:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Private | Only you (and collaborators, if applicable) can access it. |
| Processing | The system is still generating or preparing the report. |
| Pending review | Submitted for publication; waiting on automated checks or manual review. |
| Published | Live at a public URL; shareable as you intend. |
| Rejected | Not published -- often after review or policy checks; you'll typically see why or what to change. |
Public report URLs
Once published, the report gets a clean, shareable URL you can paste into emails, posts, or docs. Treat the link like any public webpage: anyone with the URL can view it (unless you change visibility later).
Next: spread the word with Sharing reports -- copy link, social posts, and highlight-to-share.
