### 3.11.12.1 About Changing Application Build Status

Use the Build Status attribute to prevent an application from being modified by other developers.

The Build Status attribute has two settings:

- Run and Build Application - Developers can both run and edit an application.

- Run Application Only - Developers can only run an application.

  Setting the Build Status to Run Application Only is an effective way to prevent other developers from modifying it.

Ways to Modify Build Status

You can change the Build Status of an application as follows:

- Application-level - Developers and administrators can change the Build Status attribute on the Edit Application page. See Availability in Oracle APEX App Builder User’s Guide.

- Workspace-level - Workspace administrators can change the Build Status of applications within the current workspace on the Manage Application Build Status page. See Changing Build Status for Multiple Applications.

- Instance-level -Instance administrators can change the Build Status of an application on the Build Status page as described in Changing Build Status in Administration Services.
