Viewing a Mashup
During design time, the mashup is not interactive, events are not triggered, and data services are not executed. You can view an accurate rendering of the mashup in your browser. To view the mashup, click View Mashup. When you view a mashup, a new tab opens and the mashup is rendered in a run-time environment. During run time, you can execute services, trigger events, and interact with your Thing models. Unlike the design environment, the run-time environment provides a more accurate rendering of how your mashup looks and reacts when viewed in a web browser.
You can also view mashups directly using the REST API service. To view a mashup directly, use the following syntax:
<protocol>://<server>:<port>/Thingworx/Mashups/<MashupName>
• <protocol>—The protocol used to connect to the server: HTTP or HTTPS
• <server>—Name or IP address of your ThingWorx server
• <port>—Port number
• <MashupName>—Name of the mashup entity in ThingWorx
 |
The run time toolbar is not displayed when you view a mashup directly. To switch the toolbar on and off during run time, press CTRL+ALT+F9
|
You can use the following options in the run-time toolbar:

Previewing the Mashup Resolution
You can change the mashup resolution when viewing a mashup, and then preview the way the mashup appears on different display sizes in a live environment. By default, the mashup size is set based on the available space in the browser window.
