# Distributing a model

There are various ways to distribute a model:

* Use the Distribute option in the context-sensitive menu that you can access by right-clicking on a model or a target.

* Use the Distribute option in the Target and Model sub-menus in the menu bar, and the icons for these options in the toolbar.

* Use the Distribute icon in the environment tree structure at the target and model levels.

The distribution screen displayed depends on whether you select the Distribute option in a target or in a model.

The following screen is displayed by selecting the Distribute option in a model.

It displays a list of targets on which the selected model has not yet been distributed.

Simply select the target sites on which you want to distribute the model.

When you distribute a model on a target, the distribution properties window is opened (see [Distribution](https://help.qlik.com/talend/en-US/change-data-capture-reference-guide/7.3/distribution)).

The environment tree structure shows the distribution at a level below the target.
