Releases - How to update your product and send updates to customers

This guide explains how the ArtStation Marketplace product update system works, ensuring your customers are always notified of new versions while retaining access to their original files.

Written by Elaine

ArtStation uses a Releases system to update products. This has many benefits:

  1. You can update products in a controlled manner, releasing new versions to customers. Existing customers are notified of every new version.

  2. It's clear to customers what the differences are between a previous version and a new version.

  3. Customers have access to previous versions, in case a new version breaks a previous version.

How it works

When a product is published for the first time, it creates an initial release. Once a product is released, that release cannot be edited (except for typos on descriptions, etc.) This is to protect customers who purchase products.
