# Publishing a Substreams Package

In this guide, you'll learn how to publish a Substreams package to the [Substreams Registry](https://substreams.dev).

### Prerequisites

* You must have the Substreams CLI installed.
* You must have a Substreams package (`.spkg`) that you want to publish.

### Step 1: Run the `substreams publish` Command

1. In a command-line terminal, run `substreams publish <YOUR-PACKAGE>.spkg`.
2. If you do not have a token set in your computer, navigate to `https://substreams.dev/me`.
