### Things you should know

1. Notes for publishing chatbots
2. How to publish

### 1. Before publishing

1. Make sure that **you have finished editing dialogue**, such as correctly naming the buttons and connecting to its corresponding messages. Also, do make sure that all rules of the messages are correctly set.
2. Remember to **train your bot before publishing**. Also, if you have updated utterances, you need to click on  **`Train`** and wait until training is finished.
3. Most importantly, make sure **your bot is connected** to either Facebook page or LINE@ account. If not, you can follow the guide on [Create Chatbot and Connect](https://app.gitbook.com/@docs-en-yoctol-ai/s/yoctol/~/edit/drafts/-LnQJsTXatUDJ-slOjKr/v/master/jian-ji-qi-ren-zhi-nan/2-create-a-chatbot-and-connect).
