# Run and share a preview

> Open the service an agent is building and give feedback.

Ask the agent to start the application and tell you its port. Open the workspace, then click the globe button, **Preview a port**.

## 1\. Open the running application

Enter the port, such as **3000**, and click **Open**. The preview appears in a tab beside the conversation. Firetower routes it through the control plane; the worker does not need a public port.

Review the notes in the right panel. Click **Send notes to the agent**; the button shows how many notes will be sent. After the agent makes the change, reload the preview and check it.

## Share access

A preview uses a signed URL. Anyone opening it still needs a network route to your Firetower installation. The application’s own sign-in may also apply.

## If the preview stops

Check that the service is running on the selected port and the worker is reachable. Ending the workspace stops its running preview. A [saved artifact](https://usefiretower.com/docs/artifacts) is a separate output.
