Hi @albert I see a publish button on the top of ios.thunkable

Is it now possible ?

The button is visible and the docs are available, so I would assume it’s possible.

Yes, you are correct! Publish is also available. We just refreshed the documentation around publish so please take a look and let us know if you are running into any issues.

Thanks!

Hi there. We are actually working on making Assistant work for Android and hoping to make it available for beta testing soon. Out of curiosity, how would you like to use that component?
