# How do I export a Studio project to Spotify?

Before exporting your audiobook to Spotify, you need to create your audiobook in Studio. This includes selecting the voices you want to use, arranging the content, and reviewing the audio to ensure everything sounds as expected.

Once your project is finalized, you can export it for distribution.

Here are the steps you need to follow to export your Studio project to Spotify:

::::steps
:::step
Open your Studio project and go to **Export > Publish > Spotify.**
:::

:::step
A modal will appear explaining the process. Click **Continue** to proceed.
:::

:::step
On the **Audio Preview** screen, select which chapter you want to use for the free **audio preview** (the first 5 minutes of that chapter will be used). Please note that you won’t be able to listen to the preview in this modal, but you can change which chapter is used.
:::

:::step
Adjust the narrator names that will appear in the audiobook credits. By default, voices will be labeled as “Digital Voice” followed by the name of the voice used.
:::

:::step
Once everything is set, click **Export** to generate your audiobook in MP3 format.
:::

:::step
Log in to Spotify for Authors, or create an account.
:::

Please note that if your project includes an Instant Voice Clone, you must verify the voice before exporting. When prompted, click **Verify**, then go to **Voices > My Voices**, select the voice, and click **Click to verify**. Once verification is complete, you can continue with the export process.

All digitally narrated titles will be clearly marked in the metadata on Spotify. The statement, “This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.” will be added to the beginning of the audiobook description.
