## 24.2.1 Enabling and Disabling Debug Mode for an Application

Configure whether end users can run the application in debug mode by editing the Debugging attribute in the Application Definition.

Running an application in debug mode is useful when an application is under development. For production applications, Oracle recommends disabling debugging and thus preventing users from viewing application logic.

Developer who are logged into workspace where the application resides can always run the application in debug mode. Debug can also be enabled programmatically regardless of this debug setting.

To enable or disable debug mode for end users:

1. On the Workspace home page, click the App Builder icon.
2. Select an application.

   The Application home page appears.

3. From the Application home page, access the Application Definition in one of the following ways:
   - Edit Application Definition button:

     1. Click Edit Application Definition to the right of the application name.

     2. Click the Definition tab.

   - From Shared Components:

     1. Click Shared Components.

     2. Under Application Logic, click Application Definition.

4. Under Properties, edit the Debugging attribute:

   - Yes - Enables the application debug mode using the browser at runtime.

   - No- Disables the application debug mode using the browser at runtime.
