This document explains how to create a publication, attach assets to it, request approval, and modify it after approval if necessary.

Description

Sometimes the result of a collaboration is a scientific manuscript, such as a journal article or conference poster. You can share such publications to the public HISE portal within a study. A publication consists of a report and supporting metadata, such as title, authors, and a hero image. In addition, you can provide a visualization, file set, notebook file, or associated Github links. The publication is rendered as an HTML page in the HISE portal.
