Once your proxy and implementation contracts are verified, you will see a confirmation pop-up where you must click "Save".

You can verify a proxy contract by providing its code through the [<mark style="color:blue;">standard flow.</mark>](/smart-contracts/smart-contracts-verification.md) Now, after verification, your contract can be read and written as a proxy.
