# Manage published desktops

To modify a published desktop, select it in the **Publishing** view. To view and modify desktop settings, use the navigation bar in the middle pane. To edit settings, click the **Edit** button.

## **Overview**

This view lists other navigation bar items with short descriptions. You can click items here or in the navigation bar.

## **Publish from**

Lists hosts or host pools from which the desktop is published. Use the **Publish from** drop-down list to switch between individual hosts or host pools. Select or clear hosts or host pools as needed.

## **Desktop**

This view displays the published desktop settings. For the description of how to configure these settings, please see [**Publish a desktop**](/landing/ras-mp-guide/publishing/publish-a-desktop.md).

## **Filtering**

The settings in the **Filtering** view are not available in the publishing wizard and can only be set here. The settings are common for published resources of all types. For complete details, see [**Using filtering rules**](/landing/ras-mp-guide/publishing/manage-published-resources/using-filtering-rules.md).

## **Routing**

Please see [**Configuring preferred routing**](/landing/ras-mp-guide/publishing/manage-published-resources/configuring-preferred-routing.md).

## **Shortcuts**

This view allows you to configure where a shortcut for the published desktop is created on a user device. These settings are inherited from site defaults, but can be customized for a given published resource. For details, please see [**Site defaults (Publishing)**](/landing/ras-mp-guide/publishing/manage-published-resources/site-defaults-publishing.md).

If you made changes, click the **Save** button or click **Cancel** to discard them.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/ras-mp-guide/publishing/manage-published-resources/manage-published-desktops.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
