A **listing** is your template's page on the marketplace. You build it in **Settings › Creator › Templates** (widget packages under **Widgets**, apps under **Apps**). You need a [creator profile](/docs/marketplace/marketplace-creator-profile) first.

## Create a listing

**Create a template listing**

1. **New listing** — In Settings › Creator › Templates, choose New template and pick
   where it starts from: From my workspace, or an External template — a
   link-only template you sell elsewhere (Notion, Google Sheets, Excel or
   Airtable). For any other product choose Other… and type its name.
2. **Choose the contents** — On the Contents tab, pick dashboards, widgets, automations, feeds,
   tables and enrichments from your workspace. BankSync exports them as a
   portable template: your banks become "a bank" the installer chooses, and
   your destinations become a destination they connect. No account, feed or
   workspace id is kept. Values of your own, such as a category you made up or
   the text a rule matches, are left out unless you include them when you save
   as template.
3. **Write the page** — On the Listing tab: title, tagline (up to 140 characters), description,
   category, tags and a pricing note. The preview pane beside the editor is
   exactly what the public page will look like.
4. **Add media** — Images and up to three videos on the Media tab. See Media and
   videos.
5. **Submit** — On the Review tab. See Review and
   verification.

**What you'll need** on your public page is worked out from the contents — the banks, feeds, tables or destinations an installer must choose — and cannot be typed by hand, so it is always true.

If the export finds something that would only work in your workspace (a hard-coded account id, a link to one of your tables), it stops and names the resource. Remove or replace it and export again.

## Versions

Copy, category, tags and the pricing note save straight away and need no review. Changing the **contents** creates a new **version** (release). A new version is reviewed before it replaces the current one; people who installed an earlier version see **Update available** and choose when to take it.

## Installs and views

Each listing shows its **live installs** (how many workspaces have it installed now) and its **views over the last 30 days**. Neither says who installed or viewed.

## Delete and restore

Deleting a listing removes its public page at once. Workspaces that installed it keep everything it made. You can **restore** a deleted listing for 30 days; it comes back unlisted until you list it again. After 30 days it is gone for good.

## Limits

### Templates for another product

An **Other…** link must be an `https` address on a public website: not an IP address, a local name, an address with a port, a link shortener, a BankSync address, or the site of a product in the list (pick that product instead). Until staff approve the version holding it, nobody but you can open or install the link; once approved, the page shows the product's name and "Opens on *site*".

At most three of your listings can be in review at a time. A template holds up to 40 resources.
