Publish Job
Understand a Publish Job as the explicit Growth Center publishing action that controls outbound posting and scheduling.
A Publish Job is the Growth Center record that controls outbound publishing. Draft metadata alone does not post content.
Define Publish Job in Growth Center
Growth Center publishing is always explicit. A publish-now action or scheduled publishing action creates a Publish Job.
The Publish Job has its own UTC scheduled_at value for scheduled publishing or represents a publish-now action.
Separate Publish Jobs From Draft Metadata
A content draft can include scheduling metadata, but draft scheduled_at is metadata only.
Growth Center must not silently post content from draft metadata, opportunity conversion, campaign placement, or automation runs.
Track Publish Attempts
Publish Jobs can produce publish attempts. Attempt-level outcomes can record provider execution details.
Publish attempts are not reach, impression, click, ROI, or provider engagement metrics.
