Publishing content in Exchange

How is content published?

To provide new solutions when new needs arise or adapt existing solutions when those needs change, Exchange regularly broaden their catalog by publishing items.

If you have content that you think might be useful for other users and you want to be an active part in the process, you can send it to us through our content proposal tool for evaluation.
