Web Publishing lets you turn any Object into a public webpage at a URL anyone can visit. Pick an Object, click Publish, and Anytype generates a static HTML page hosted on your personal subdomain at <your-id>.any.org/<slug>.

This is for content you want publicly readable — blog posts, public profiles, documentation, meeting briefs, or anything you'd otherwise put on a personal website.

With Web Publishing, the Object you've already written is the published page. Update the Object, republish, and the public page updates. No second platform to maintain.

Publishing an Object

Open the Object you want to publish.

Click Share in the top-right corner.

Review the URL slug.

Click Publish.

Within a few seconds, your Object is live at <your-any-id>.any.org/<slug>. Copy the URL or share directly from the dialog.

Updating a published page

Edit the Object normally. Your edits don't auto-publish — you have to republish to push changes:

Open the Object.

Click Share.

Choose Unpublish or Update.

Managing your published pages

Vault Settings > My Sites is the central management screen for everything you've published:

See a list of every published Object with title, URL, last published date

Click any URL to open the live page in a browser

What's supported and what isn't

Web Publishing is still in development.

Supported in published pages

All text formatting — paragraphs, headings, lists, callouts, quotes

Images and image blocks — included as part of the published page

Code blocks with syntax highlighting

LaTeX math — rendered as static MathML

Embeds that work in static contexts — YouTube, Vimeo, Mermaid diagrams (rendered server-side), images

Custom Object icon and cover — appears at the top of the page

Visible Properties — chosen Properties appear in the page metadata or header

Toggle blocks — collapsed by default in published view, expandable on click

Not yet supported

Linked Objects — links to other Objects in your Channel point to a "page not published" placeholder unless those Objects are also published

Inline Queries and Collections — these don't render in published pages

Chats and Discussions — not exposed publicly

Multi-page sites — you can publish many Objects but they're independent pages, not a connected site (multi-page is on the roadmap)

Custom themes or styling — published pages use a default Anytype style

Custom domains — published pages live on <your-id>.any.org; pointing a custom domain is on the roadmap

For multi-page sites, watch for updates in the Anytype changelog.

Tips

Don't publish Objects with sensitive Properties. Properties like internal status, private notes, and personal information are uploaded too unless you exclude them in the publish dialog. Review what's visible before clicking Publish.

Anyone with the URL can see a published page — including web archivers, search engines, and screenshot tools. Treat the URL as effectively public, even if you don't share it widely.
