Making a package free to use for everyone

[RoBoPoJu]

1. What do you want to achieve?
   I have made a few code packages that I’d like to publish for everyone to use. I’d like to know whether this is possible. Also, if it isn’t possible, do I need to also upload these as models in order to make them usable for others?

2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
   I don’t know whether distributing packages on the Creator Marketplace is possible. In the creator dashboard, there is a toggle “Distribute on creator marketplace” which makes it seem like it should be possible. However, when I toggle this on and click “Save changes”, I get “Unknown error. Please try again later.”
   

   

3. What solutions have you tried so far?
   I tried to find information about this. The latest information I found about this was a post from February of this year. The writer told that it wasn’t possible yet but both he and an older staff announcement have told that the feature has been planned to be added. The packages documentation page in creator hub doesn’t mention distributing on Creator Marketplace in the “Sharing and access levels” section which makes it seem like this may not be possible. However, if it’s not possible, why does the toggle exist in Creator Dashboard?

Here’s the post from February.

How do I make a package public in the creator marketplace?

Packages cannot currently be put in the marketplace or be configured to grant public usage access levels. There are plans for this to be a feature in the future assuming that hasn’t changed in the past few years.

Here’s the staff announcement

Packages: Sharing & Collaboration [Activated!]

Overview [This is now live for everyone!] Packages are designed to give you the ability to create an asset once, and then reuse it everywhere all while keeping them in sync. We have a clear vision for Packages, and today we want to give a couple insights into that vision as well as talk about a new feature we have been working on. We have four core principles for Packages: Modularity Turn any instance or group of instances in your place and turn it into a modular, independently versioned a…

I think that sharing is just meant for groups, friends, and co-developers, instead of the marketplace. So you can share with a specific group, or people, but not everyone
