Publishing your audiobook

After you select Submit and Publish, Spotify for Authors starts creating your audiobook automatically.

While your audiobook is processing

Audio is generated for your audiobook in the background. You don’t need to stay on the page while processing finishes.

Publishing to Spotify

When processing is complete, your audiobook is automatically published to Spotify. You don’t need to take any additional action to publish your audiobook.

Most audiobooks are published within 72 hours.
