3. Click the drop-down menu associated with the object that you want to make public.
4. The drop-down menu appears as three vertical dots to the far right of the object's row.
5. Select Edit permissions from the drop-down menu.
6. In the overlay that appears, click the + Add item button.

7. Add a permission for allUsers.

   • Select User for the Entity.
