Content preview enables you to preview your latest changes in items before you publish them. 

To use preview, your developers first need to set up preview for your app and project. Once this is done, you can preview your work using the preview button in Kontent.ai.

    Preview in Web Spotlight

    If you're using Web Spotlight, you can see the preview of your content directly in Kontent.ai. Click the Preview tab to see it.

    To go back to the content item editing, click the button on the element you want to edit or switch back to the Editor tab.

    Preview your latest changes

    To preview a content item you're currently editing outside Web Spotlight, click the  Preview button at the top. This opens a new browser tab with a preview of your item.

    Don't see the preview button?

    If you don't see the  Preview button, you need to contact your project manager or developer. It's likely that they just forgot to set up the preview URL.

    Edit directly from preview

    If you spot a mistake when previewing your content, you can go back to editing directly in Kontent.ai by clicking an edit button in the preview. This is something that your developers need to implement first.
