Publishing Products, Features, and Components
To publish a product, component, or feature, use one of the publishing actions. The PublishProduct action registers the product information with the system. After executing the PublishProduct action, publish the components with the PublishComponents action, which in turn uses the PublishComponent table to determine the components that are set as advertised. To publish on a per-feature basis, invoke the PublishFeatures action. This action uses the FeatureComponents table as data to resolve which features are advertised.
There are also two corresponding actions that unpublish a feature or a component: the UnpublishComponents action and the UnpublishFeatures action.
