The Application Express engine dynamically renders and processes pages based on data stored in database tables. To view a rendered version of your application, you run or submit it to the Application Express engine. As you create new pages, you can run them individually, or run an entire application. You can run an application by clicking the Run Application icon.

About the Run Application Icon
The Run Application icon resembles a traffic light. A large colored Run Application icon appears on the Application home page.

Many pages within Application Builder also feature a smaller, light green version of this icon. Clicking this smaller Run icon runs the current application or individual pages depending upon the context. For example, clicking the Run icon on the Application home page runs the entire application. Clicking the icon on the Page Definition runs the current page.
