Activate and Test Process Applications

Activating a process application moves its resources from design time (Designer) to runtime (Workspace), where users can run it in either a test or production capacity.

To activate and test a process application:

1. Activate the process application. See Activate an Application Version.
   To know more about working with snapshots and versions, see the following topics:

   • Work with Snapshots
   • Work with Versions
2. Test the process application in Workspace.
   1. In the Activate pane, click Test in Workspace.
      A new browser tab opens in Workspace. Notice that the URL is the same except for workspace at the end rather than designer.
   2. On the Start Requests page, select your activated process application. If you deselected the Make it default field, click the All tab to display all activated versions rather than just default versions.
   3. Run the process application as an end user.
      • Start an Application
      • Work on Tasks
      • Track Processes

Troubleshoot: If you can't see your activated process application in the Start Requests page in Workspace, ensure that you’ve configured a role that can start the process in the application. See Enable Users to Start Your Application.
