Account readiness is specific, not universal.
Publishing depends on the exact account, its permissions, the media type, usage limits, and the destination’s own rules. Storycairn shows that state before asking you to publish.
| State | Meaning | What Storycairn does |
|---|---|---|
| Needs sign-in | The account owner still needs to grant access. | Show the requested permissions and keep publishing off until access succeeds. |
| Needs review | The destination has not approved this publishing path yet. | Explain what is open and keep publishing off. |
| Usage may cost money | This destination can create a real usage charge. | Show the limit and require an approved spending cap before use. |
| Manual handoff | Direct delivery is not verified for this destination. | Offer a downloadable handoff and never show a false success. |
What the sample shows
The fictional sample includes example readiness cards so you can understand the decision. They are not connected accounts and cannot publish.
