  3. You will see a list of all your products, including those in Draft and Live status.

Step 2: Add a New Product

  1. Click Add New Product.
  2. The system will guide you through a six-step setup form designed to make configuration clear and simple.

Step 3: Complete the Product Setup Form

Step 1: Details

Enter the basic product information:

  • Product Name
  • Product Logo (upload)
  • Product Description
  • Product Categories
Step 2: Highlights
  • Add short key points that highlight what makes your product stand out.
Step 3: Benefits
  • Describe how your product helps users and solves their problems.
Step 4: Features
  • List the features included in the product so users clearly understand what they will receive.
Step 5: Pricing Plans
  • Set up one or more pricing plans.
  • Provide clear details for each plan so users can easily compare options and choose the plan that best suits their needs.
Step 6: Review

Pre-Publication Requirements

Before a product can be published, the following steps must be completed.

Upload Product Blueprint

Required for Publication

A valid product blueprint must be uploaded before the product can go live.

  • Upload the product blueprint in Kubernetes YAML format.
  • This file defines how the product is deployed on the platform.

What to Include in the Blueprint

Your Kubernetes YAML file should describe all components required for your product to operate, including:

  • Deployments – application and database workloads
  • Services – internal or external access
  • PersistentVolumeClaims (PVCs) – data storage
  • ConfigMaps & Secrets – configuration values and credentials
  • Network Policies (if required) – network access control

Example (High-Level)

A typical blueprint may contain multiple Kubernetes resources in a single YAML file, separated by ---, such as:

  • Database deployment (e.g. PostgreSQL)
  • Application deployment
  • Required services and storage definitions

Note

The platform accepts standard Kubernetes YAML syntax. Advanced Kubernetes knowledge is not required, but the blueprint must be valid and deployable.

Important Guidelines

  • Ensure all referenced images, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and PVCs are correctly defined.
  • Use supported Kubernetes API versions.
  • Avoid hard-coded sensitive credentials; use Secrets where applicable.
  • Test your Kubernetes YAML locally or in a test cluster before uploading.

Tip

Once uploaded successfully, the platform will automatically deploy your product during subscription and project setup.

Select Supported Blockchain Networks

  • Choose the blockchain networks supported by your product.
  • This allows users to understand where their data can be stored and select the network that best meets their requirements.

Publish Product

  • Once all requirements are completed, click Go Live.
  • Your product will be published and made available in the marketplace.

Completion

Your product is now live, discoverable by users, and ready for subscriptions and development use.
