Once you've made changes on a branch, you can share them with your team by publishing an update. This allows you to get feedback on your changes during review.
The following steps will outline a basic flow for publishing a preview of your changes, and then sharing it with your team. For a more comprehensive resource, see the Preview updates guide.
Publish a preview of your changes
You can publish a preview of your current changes by running the following EAS CLI command:
Terminal
Copy
- eas update --auto
This command will publish an update under the current branch name.
Once the preview is published, you'll see output like this in the terminal window:
Terminal
✔ Published!
...``EAS Dashboard https://expo.dev/accounts/your-account/projects/your-project/updates/708b05d8-9bcf-4212-a052-ce40583b04fd
Share the EAS dashboard link with a reviewer. After opening the link, they can click on the Preview button. They will see a QR code that they can scan to open the preview on their device.

You can automatically create previews on every commit with EAS Workflows . First, you'll need to configure your project , add a file named .eas/workflows/publish-preview-update.yml at the root of your project, then add the following workflow configuration:
.eas/workflows/publish-preview-update.yml
Copy
name: Publish preview update on: push: branches: ['*'] jobs: publish_preview_update: name: Publish preview update type: update params: branch: ${{ github.ref_name || 'test' }}
The workflow above will publish an update on every commit to every branch. You can also run this workflow manually with the following EAS CLI command:
Terminal
Copy
- eas workflow:run publish-preview-update.yml
