In this section, you will learn:

  • What can be found on the Publishers screen in Listings

Overview

The Publishers screen can be found by clicking Listings in the left navigation bar and selecting Publishers. Here, you’ll see all the publishers on the Yext Publisher Network that your listings are opted into, with metrics to display the type of listings and number of listings that are live in your account with each publisher.

At the top of the screen, you’ll see hero numbers with an overview of some key Listings metrics:

  • The total number of publishers where your listings are opted in
  • Your total number of listings
  • The number of listings in each Status: Synced, Processing, Not Synced, and Opted Out. You’ll learn more about statuses later in the track after you go through the Listings Launch flow.
