# Preview stream

Now is the time to preview our stream before sharing it with the world.

Preview your project

Congratulations. After uploading and releasing your package, you're now ready to stream. \
There is always the possibility to **preview** your stream on the **Preview** page. You will be able to see the stream preview, as long as you are logged in and authorized on the platform.<br>

## Preview&#x20;

Starting the preview will spin up an instance of the application and start streaming.\
By default Arcware Cloud provides a branded loading overlay, this can be of course rebranded using the WebSDK for custom frontend integration.

The preview will show you the stream with almost all availabe buttons\functions being enabled by default and **only for the Preview page**.

* Disconnect Stream
* Mic input On\Off toggle
* Audio Mute\Unmute toggle
* Info button
* Settings button
* Fullscreen button

{% hint style="info" %}
Showing or hiding the functions for the preview, can be overriden via the WebSDK settings page, which you will dicover later on your journey.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Measuring the latency &#x20;

By clicking the info button, we can run a latency test. \
Sometimes it is an important insight knowing that information and understanding the impact on the streaming quality.&#x20;

## In preview settings

&#x20;And the final topic on the Preview page we will cover is the settings function.\
Here you will have exposed all the settings and features to play around and test :)

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep in mind, these settings will be applied in your current preview session only.
{% endhint %}

Next, we are going to deep dive into the project settings !
