And when you update data in your Salesforce object, the changes are reflected automatically on the live site—no site updates required!"), you must [set the data access permissions](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.siteforce_data_access_perms.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Sites built with Site.com are publicly available, so visitors access the site via the Guest User license that's associated with the site.") in the imported site's guest user profile.
