How Do I Make a Hidden Competition Live?
Last updated: November 9, 2026
Making a hidden Competition live shows it to everyone in Ambition and sends competitors their start email. You can also hide a live Competition again, though it will disappear from competitors' view while it's hidden.
Required permissions:
The Competitions: All Access permission is required to change any Competition's visibility.
The Competitions: Create Challenges permission is required to change the visibility of a Challenge or Bracket Competition you created.
Make the Competition Live
Go to Motivate --> Competitions.
Optional: Select Hidden from the Competition Visibility drop-down menu in the Filters panel and click on Apply.
Click on the ellipses icon on the Competition's card.
Click on Make Live.
Hide a Live Competition
To hide a live Competition, follow the same steps and click on Make Hidden instead. You can also switch the Visibility toggle between Live and Hidden while editing a Competition.
