• Updated

Highlights are the updates that you share on your Polywork page. They can be any professional or personal update you want to share with your network about something you’ve done or are currently working on—including starting a project, shipping a product, pushing new code live, giving a speech, speaking on a podcast, completing a training, finishing a book, landing a promotion, investing in a company, conducting a mentorship session, or anything else.

Highlights, unlike Posts, will show on your Polywork profile timeline and include Activity Tags.

There are two ways to create a Highlight:

1. Creating a Highlight from the Home page

1. Click on the arrow next to the Post button
