# Open the SWAPP

The SWAPP (Spotfire Web Application for Pipeline Pilot) is bundled with the Pipeline Pilot package and will be available at `https://yourpipelinepilotserver:port/discngine/swapp` after the package has been installed. It can be opened through different flows in Analyst and Web Player.

## SWAPP menu

Since version 6 of the Connector, to load the SWAPP into a Spotfire panel, go to **Discngine > SWAPP** in Analyst and **Discngine > SWAPP [Beta]** in Web Player. This will open the panel in an empty document if no document is open otherwise, it will in the current document. The default content of this panel is set according to the value of the **SwappUrl** [Spotfire preference](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-admin-references-webpanel-preferences) which is set during the installation and must be the URL of the SWAPP.

## Web panel menu

If the **BaseURL** [Spotfire preference](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-admin-references-webpanel-preferences) is set to a file containing a link or redirection to the SWAPP URL, or the URL of the SWAPP itself, the SWAPP can also be loaded using the **Discngine > Web panel** menu as described [here](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-webpanel-references-panel).

## Mashup mode

It is also possible to open the SWAPP in a mashup mode in Web Player by visiting the SWAPP URL `https://yourpipelinepilotserver:port/discngine/swapp` in your browser. We strongly recommend using a browser compatible with the latest web technologies like Chrome or Firefox.

Note that the Spotfire server used through this URL is defined in the global variables that the SWAPP uses in your Pipeline Pilot server configuration (see [Global Properties](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-admin-references-global-properties)).

If the OAuth authentication is configured (available from version 6.1.441 of the Connector), the first time a user will try to reach the SWAPP, a consent will be required to allow the application to open. ![Consent request for mashup application](https://connector.discngine.com/images-doc360/spo_pp/swapp_guides/oauth_client_consent.png)
