Article summary

Preview Mode: Displays the entire Whatfix experience that includes the Self Help tab, widgets, Flows, etc. It helps the content creator experience what the end user sees, even if the Whatfix JavaScript or the Whatfix custom extension is not deployed. This is also the mode where you can check how Advanced Customization and Smart Context work.

See Live: Displays a preview of only the Flow, Beacon, and Smart Tip that the user is currently viewing. It does not display Self Help, changes made to the content through advanced customization, Smart context, etc.

Launch live edit: Enables you to edit Flows, Smart Tips, and Beacons live, while running the content in the application that they were created in.

The table below lists the Whatfix features that can be viewed in different modes:
