7.5 Running a Page from Page Designer

The Oracle APEX engine dynamically renders and processes pages based on data stored in database tables. To view a rendered version of an application, you run or submit it to the APEX engine.

To run a page in Page Designer:

1. View the page in Page Designer:
   1. On the Workspace home page, click the App Builder icon.
   2. Select an application.
   3. Select a page.

   Page Designer appears.

   Page Designer appears. You preview a page by running it. Running an application page displays the rendered version as end users would see it.
2. Click the Save and Run Page button in the upper right corner. The Save and Run Page button resembles a green right-facing arrow.

   Tip:

   On a Global page, clicking Save and Run reloads the currently active page, including an open modal dialog. If no page is currently running, the application's main page displays (for example, the home or login pages). On a modal dialog page, clicking Save and Run refreshes the modal dialog if it is open. If not, it reloads the active page or opens the application's main page if no page is currently running.

   A rendered version of the application page appears.
