Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Change the state of an educationAssignment from its original draft status to the published status.

You can change the state from draft to scheduled if the assignment is scheduled for a future date.

Only a teacher in the class can make this call. When an assignment is in draft status, students will not see the assignment, nor will there be any submission objects. When you call this API, educationSubmission objects are created and the assignment appears in the student's list.

The state of the assignment goes back to draft if there is any backend failure during publish process.

To update the properties of a published assignment, see update an assignment.

To update the properties of a published assignment, see update an assignment.
