Improving the Google Workspace Marketplace app publishing experience with Drafts

What's changing

Developers can create apps for the Google Workspace Marketplace that automate tasks, integrate Google Workspace with third-party products, and enhance communication and collaboration. 
To improve upon the publishing experience, we're excited to announce that developers can now make changes to their app listing, save them as a draft, and send the draft version to review. This will allow developers to preview changes and share drafts with specific users to help with validation before publishing a listing.

Why you'd use it 

This update allows developers to test and preview their Google Workspace Marketplace app listing prior to publishing, which enables feedback collection and ultimately makes updating an app listing much easier. 

Additional details 

While changes are under review in the draft state, the original app listing remains available on the Google Workspace Marketplace.
