Publish Documents & Forms

Markdown Public Free · Advanced Features with Pro

Eidos Publish lets you instantly publish a single Markdown document, read-only data table, or response-collection form from your Space into a standalone web page accessible in any browser.

Once published, your computer does not need to stay online, and visitors do not need to install software or register an account to view your shared links.

1. Publish a Document in Seconds

1. In the sidebar file tree, right-click the file you wish to publish (.md notes or .eidos files).
2. Select Publish… from the context menu.
3. Custom URL (Slug): Enter your preferred URL path (e.g. project-roadmap).
4. Access Control:
   • Public: Anyone with the link can view.
   • Password: Visitors must enter your password to view.
   • Private: Accessible only to the signed-in publisher.
5. Click Publish. Within seconds, a live link is generated—ready to be copied and shared with clients or colleagues.

Visitors Cannot Alter Your Local Files

When publishing an .eidos table, visitors enjoy an interactive read-only experience. They can filter, sort, and browse cards, but can never modify your underlying local files.

2. Publish Forms to Collect Responses

If your .eidos table includes a Form view, you can publish it online to collect survey results, bug reports, or event registrations:

1. Right-click the .eidos file and select Publish….
2. Under Publish as, select the desired Form view.
3. Configure submission permissions and your custom URL slug, then click Publish.
4. Anyone on a mobile or desktop browser can fill out and submit the form.
5. Collect Responses: In Eidos Lite, right-click the file, select Manage Publish…, and click Collect now to import new online submissions directly into your local table!

3. Updating and Unpublishing

• Intentional Updates: Local edits are kept local until you are ready, preventing drafts from prematurely leaking. Right-click the file, open Manage Publish…, and click republish. Your existing web URL remains identical.
• Instant Takedown: You can pause or unpublish any link anytime from the Manage Publish dialog.
