Manage embedded app pages

Learn how to add, edit, and remove pages of an embedded app via the web app so your external tools appear in SafetyCulture's sidebar for quick access.

What are apps in SafetyCulture?

Apps are third-party applications you can connect to the SafetyCulture platform to extend its functionality and enable custom workflows for your organization. This flexibility empowers teams to work smarter and stay connected across tools they already rely on. You can embed private and marketplace apps via iframes, and once configured they appear in the left menu of the SafetyCulture web app so your team can access them at any time.

View embedded apps via the web app.

Private apps

Private apps are custom-built applications created by anyone with a SafetyCulture organization. They are specifically intended as a company-specific solution and accessible only to authorized users. For example, you can embed a custom-developed app that supports your proprietary business processes.

Marketplace apps

Marketplace apps are solutions created by SafetyCulture partners that can be purchased by anyone with a SafetyCulture Premium Plan or Enterprise Plan from the Integrations Marketplace. These are installed automatically by the app providers. For example, as a SafetyCulture partner, you can create an app to manage project timelines and milestones, ensuring inspection-related actions are completed on schedule. Once approved, you can list your app in the SafetyCulture app marketplace.

Join the SafetyCulture Partner Program for free and get access to a range of benefits, including training, certifications, and access to a supportive community.

Each app installation can have up to 10 pages only. You may also need prior knowledge of using API clients, making cURL requests, and understanding JSON data structures to embed apps in SafetyCulture. A step-by-step guide is available in the SafetyCulture Developer Portal.
