If your user account belongs to the API Publisher role for an organization, you automatically have permission to publish all of the policies in that organization. If your user account belongs to the CentraSite Administrator role, you have permission to publish any system-wide policy on the server.

You cannot publish an inactive policy. If the policy that you want to publish is in the inactive state, you must activate it. For information about activating a policy, see Activating a Run-Time Policy.

If you publish a run-time policy that is already applied to a published virtual API, you must manually republish the policy to put those changes into immediate effect.
