Step 1:  After creating the module/package in the marketplace, click on the card for the module/package. It has been created locally, but now it needs to be pushed to the marketplace.

Step 2:  Creating the module also generates the manifest JSON file. The file must be copied and sent to an administrator with Admin rights to the marketplace to add the configuration. This step is important; without it, the module/package will not be added to the marketplace. You will receive from the administrator password that you need to save it on your local machine.
