Mashup indicator
Hello.
Short question. Is there something like an indicator during runtime available, where i can identify, if Pega is running in a Mashup?
Something like pxRequestor.pxDeviceType, which indicates if Pega run on mobile or desktop.
Background: I would like to circumstance the UI rules in case of Mashp processing.
Thanks in advance, Matthias

You can think of using the getGadgetInfo() API which gets information on a specified mashup.
For example :
pega.web.api.doAction("gadgetName", "getGadgetInfo")
The action returns the following information about the mashup:
Application;Thread;System;UIdoc;isDirty;isLoaded
The return object contains the mashup information in the following format:
{application:"", thread:"", system:"", UIdoc:"", isDirty:"", isLoaded:""})
To process the data, you must split the information at the comma delimiters.

Hi Santanu.
Thanks for the reply, but it sounds for me like it is the way to get information's about a Mashup from the outer frame (where the mashup is embedded) and it will always need the GadgetName.
In my example the presented content in the Mashup does not know that it is presented in a Mashup (this is, what i try to identify from inside the Mashup content). So it is also not knowing the GadgetName, which is required for the mentioned API.
Or do I have a gap in my understanding?

You mean to say that you would like to check from inside an mashuo iframe that if it is a Mashup or not.
Please check once with the console that if pega.Mashup is returning undefined or some value. (May depend on the version of Pega also) for testing the Mashup scenario.

Aslo,
In the current iframe tag you can check for the src attibute , if it contains "isWebMashup=true" or not.

That was what I was looking for.
