Automatically release or hide a page on a future date and time.

Content Flow makes it possible for content creators to set the time and date for when a page should be released for visibility by everyone. This makes it easy to roll out new articles or event pages or documentation in a coordinated fashion. Similarly, teams can write content early in the year and then create a month-by-month release schedule.

This guide walks you through the steps to set up a page for an automated future publish date.

Navigate to the desired page

Scheduling is set up on a per-page basis. For every page that you want scheduled, use these steps. (By scheduling a page, that page becomes a scheduled page, natch!)

Open the confluence menu

Click the ellipsis button and select Schedule Page

Enter a "Release On" date and time

Use the Date-picker and Time-picker dropdowns to select a publishing date and time, respectively. Note that these dates are in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). 

The page will be published on this date at that time. Between setting up a workflow and the publication date, the page will be hidden from all but those with editing privileges (If a Publishing Workflow is on the page, then its reviewers will still be able to view and edit the page).

Enter a "Hide On" date and time

Use the Date-picker and Time-picker dropdowns to select a publishing date and time, respectively. Note that these dates are in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). 

The page will be hidden (removed from view, or essentially un-published) on this date at that time. Only the person who set this schedule will be able to view and edit the page following a "Hide On" date.
