# Validating Opportunities

Once you have [**configured the opportunity types**](https://support.b2match.com/en/configuring-opportunity-types?hsLang=en) for the event the participants will be able to choose from when creating their own marketplace opportunity, the participants can create their marketplace opportunities on the event website. 

After a participant creates a marketplace opportunity, it needs to be validated to show up on the Marketplace page on the event website.

There are two different opportunity validation options: automatic and manual.

### How can I configure opportunity validation option?

First, click on ***Configuration ***on the **left sidebar** of the Organizer’s Tool.

Then, from the **Participant section**, navigate to ***Registration Settings***. 

![Registration\_settings-4366fa02-8a58-4fb8-b7b7-f07c525f6566](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Registration_settings-4366fa02-8a58-4fb8-b7b7-f07c525f6566.png?width=688&height=430&name=Registration_settings-4366fa02-8a58-4fb8-b7b7-f07c525f6566.png)

In the **Registration Settings page**, scroll down to the **Marketplace Opportunity Validation section**. 

Here, select the validation option that best suits your needs.

![Marketplace\_settings-198534be-e3fe-49f9-bef0-ede222809354](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Marketplace_settings-198534be-e3fe-49f9-bef0-ede222809354.png?width=688&height=430&name=Marketplace_settings-198534be-e3fe-49f9-bef0-ede222809354.png)

The **Marketplace opportunities are automatically validated** option publishes opportunities as they're created.

The **Manually validate marketplace opportunities **option allows you to review and personally validate opportunities, providing you better control over the opportunities.  

### How can I validate opportunities manually?

If you've selected the **Manually validate marketplace opportunities option**, once a participant creates an opportunity, you'll need to review it and make the decision to publish it or not.

When manually activating marketplace opportunities, you can configure notifications that will alert organizers by sending them an email whenever someone creates a new opportunity. This notification ensures organizers stay informed at all times and can respond promptly. 

You have 3 options for validating an opportunity. 

#### Marketplace

Click on ***Marketplace*** on the **left sidebar** of the Organizer’s tool.

This will open the [**Marketplace page**](https://support.b2match.com/en/understanding-b2match-marketplace-1?hsLang=en)displaying all opportunities your participants have created. 

To validate an opportunity, click on the ***3 dots*** next to the opportunity.

From the **drop-down menu**, click on ***Publish***.

![Publish\_from\_marketplace-c75b0faa-4d79-4068-b646-31ada2fb544a](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Publish_from_marketplace-c75b0faa-4d79-4068-b646-31ada2fb544a.png?width=688&height=430&name=Publish_from_marketplace-c75b0faa-4d79-4068-b646-31ada2fb544a.png)

#### Participant Profile Overview

Click on ***Participants ***on the **left sidebar** of the Organizer’s Tool.

From the participants list, click on a ***participant’s name ***to open their [**profile overview**](https://support.b2match.com/en/participants-profile-overview?hsLang=en) sidebar.

![Participant\_overview-4c5cd72a-a0c0-46cc-a020-432943ca7f7a](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Participant_overview-4c5cd72a-a0c0-46cc-a020-432943ca7f7a.png?width=688&height=430&name=Participant_overview-4c5cd72a-a0c0-46cc-a020-432943ca7f7a.png)

Here, navigate to the **Marketplace tab** to view their created opportunities.

To edit an opportunity, click on the ***pencil icon*** on the opportunity card. 

To publish an opportunity, simply click the ***toggle switch*** on the opportunity card. 

![Publish\_from\_Participant\_overview-c267f22e-0476-43e1-aa88-fc13e9969515](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Publish_from_Participant_overview-c267f22e-0476-43e1-aa88-fc13e9969515.png?width=688&height=430&name=Publish_from_Participant_overview-c267f22e-0476-43e1-aa88-fc13e9969515.png)

#### Organization Profile Overview

If a participant chooses to make their marketplace opportunity visible on the organization page, you can also validate the opportunity from the list of organizations.

Start by clicking on ***Organizations ***on the **left sidebar **of the Organizer’s Tool.

Then, choose an organization from the organizations list to open their [**organization's profile overview**](https://support.b2match.com/en/organizations-profile-overview?hsLang=en).

![Organisation\_overview-acfdb3d9-9829-4cab-a2eb-034148fc7222](https://support.b2match.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20images/Organisation_overview-acfdb3d9-9829-4cab-a2eb-034148fc7222.png?width=688&height=430&name=Organisation_overview-acfdb3d9-9829-4cab-a2eb-034148fc7222.png)

Access the **Marketplace tab**, where you can see all opportunities that are connected to the organization.

To validate an opportunity, simply click the ***toggle switch***.
