Product visibility in AWS Data Exchange

Staging – This status indicates an incomplete product for which you're still adding information. After you first save and exit the self-service experience, AWS Marketplace creates an unpublished product containing information from the completed steps. From this status, you can continue to add information or modify submitted details.

Limited – A product attains this status after it's submitted to AWS Marketplace and passes all validation checks. At this point, the product has a detail page accessible only to your account and allowlisted entities. You can conduct product testing through this detail page.

Public – When you're prepared to make your product visible to buyers for subscription, update the product visibility in the console. Once processed, the product transitions from Limited to Public status.

Restricted – To prevent new users from subscribing to your product, you can restrict it by updating the visibility settings. A Restricted status allows existing allowlisted users to continue using the product, but it will no longer be visible to the public or available to new users.
