Good day all! I am having an issue with the way a text box is showing in Perspective. I have the binding set to page.props.pageId and it shows the correct information in the development side of it. It also shows the correct information in the Binding Preview as well. But when I launch the application all that is displayed is a set of letters and numbers. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong? All I want to do is display the URL of the page loaded.

That's not what the pageId is. It is faked in the designer.

Is there a way to display the URL of the page loaded? I am looking to use it as a checkout/troubleshooting tool for our launch of Perspective.

I believe `page.props.path` is what you want.
