# Review and publish images

> Approve, reject, regenerate, download, and publish processed image outputs.

Review every processed image before publishing it to Shopify. This is the final
step of the broader [image workflows](/product/image-workflows). For a focused
pre-publish checklist, see [Image review before publish](/workflows/image-review-before-publish).

## Open a job for review

Open the job from the image workflow or from **Products > Running jobs**. Jobs
that are still processing show live progress. Finished items appear as they
complete.

## Review each output

<Steps>
  <Step title="Compare the output">
    Open the image preview and check the processed result against the original.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check product identity">
    Confirm the product still has the right color, pattern, logo, shape,
    material, and details.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check image quality">
    Review crop, edges, background, shadows, lighting, and any generated scene.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check product match">
    Confirm the image is attached to the right product.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check SEO details">
    Review generated alt text and filenames when they are present.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Decide what to do

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Approve">
    Approve images that are ready to publish. You can approve one image or
    approve selected images in bulk.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Reject">
    Reject images that should not be published. Rejected images stay in the job
    history but are not published.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Regenerate">
    Regenerate an image when the product is right but the output needs another
    pass.

    Use this for weak backgrounds, bad edges, wrong shadows, failed metadata,
    or template changes that need reprocessing.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Set featured">
    When several new images go to the same product, choose the image that should
    become the featured image.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Download a review zip

Use **Download zip** when you want to review files outside Atlios or share them
with a teammate before publishing.

## Publish approved images

<Steps>
  <Step title="Approve the images you want">
    Only approved images are included in the publish step.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Leave rejected images out">
    Rejected images are not sent to Shopify.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish">
    Start publishing. Atlios writes approved image changes to Shopify.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check completed items">
    Confirm the job shows completed or review any failed publish items.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Let Atlios verify">
    After publishing, Atlios re-checks the affected products automatically to
    verify image-related checks, including when the job came from an image
    issue.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Publishing changes Shopify product media. Review approved images carefully
  before starting the publish step.
</Warning>
