# Listings & publishing: one ad, every portal, nothing out of step

> Publish a listing to the portals from its record, preview exactly what is sent, see which ad is really online, and let a nightly check put a stale ad right.

**Status:** Available — In every workspace, documented here, with its changes listed on its page.
**On the broker’s path:** Objects & marketing

**The problem this solves:** The same object is typed into every portal by hand, a rental goes out as a sale, and nobody sees which ad is really online.

**In short:** A listing is the object as it goes to market: price, texts, pictures, the
energy certificate, the commission note. You publish it to the connected portals from its
record — bulk if you like — see beforehand exactly what will be sent, and afterwards which
ad is live, which is „Angelegt, nicht öffentlich“ and why.

## What you can do

- **Publish from the record, to several portals at once.** Each listing is checked first;
  only the ones that pass go out.
- **See what will be sent** — price, space, address, energy certificate, pictures, contact —
  before the ad leaves the house.
- **Trust the state.** Live, Draft, Offline read the same everywhere; an ad a portal created
  but did not put online shows as „Angelegt, nicht öffentlich“ with the portal's reason.
- **Carry the full rent.** Nebenkosten, Heizkosten, Kaution and Warmmiete on lettings, with a
  word when a Kaution asks more than the law allows; furnishing, pets, WBS, fixed or minimum
  term, Staffel- or Indexmiete.
- **Change once, update everywhere.** A new price, text, photo or tour reaches the portals
  on their own; a blurred or removed photo leaves them at once.
- **Choose what documents go to the portals** — a switch on each, off until you set it.
- **Sleep soundly.** Every night your portal ads are checked against your objects, so an ad
  that fell out of step is put right before the office opens.

## How it works

A listing belongs to one object; the exposé, the firm's website and the portals state the
same facts and the same commission. Publishing goes through each portal's official
interface with your firm's own account — see [ImmoScout24](https://docs.capitality.io/integrations/immoscout24/) and
[Kleinanzeigen](https://docs.capitality.io/integrations/kleinanzeigen/). Capitality adds no personal data of its own
on the way.

## Limits and notes

- The exposé's mandatory disclosures gate the listing: what is missing blocks sending —
  see [Exposé & mandatory disclosures](https://docs.capitality.io/features/expose/).
- Which portals are connected depends on your firm's contracts with them.
