Managed apps are pre-built apps for your organization that can be centrally managed and updated. The admin panel’s “Managed apps” page allows admins to view high-level information about their organization or org unit’s (Enterprise Hub only) managed app usage. It also provides a portal to create or manage development bases, transfer app ownership, and unpublish apps from the org’s app library.
When you access the “Managed apps” page you’ll see a layout similar to the image shown below:
You’ll be able to:
Search for a managed app by it’s name
Filter to show only apps “Managed by me” or “Managed by anyone”
Click the + Publish a managed app button to create and publish a new managed app in the builder hub
Below these options you’ll see a list of all of the managed apps associated with your org or org unit showing:
Managed app - The name of the app
Owner - The org user who currently owns the app
Last published - The last time the app was published (i.e. new updates were added in the development base)
Audience - The audience that is able to use / add the managed app (Learn more here)
Times added - The number of times the managed app has been added
Org unit - (Enterprise Hub only) The org unit where the managed app can be used
NOTE
Most of the column headers can be clicked to sort the list of managed apps in ascending or descending order by the column of your choice.
Clicking the … icon to the right of a managed app that is listed on the page will open a menu where you can:
Go to development base - Navigate to the builder hub location containing the development base where this app is managed
View details - Navigate to a more detailed view of information related to a specific managed app
Transfer ownership - Covered in the “Transferring ownership of managed apps” accordion below
Unpublish from library - *CAUTION Unpublishing will delete the managed app / development base. Any connected apps will continue to exist, but the configuration of any managed tables, automations, and interfaces will continue to be locked unless they are converted to unmanaged. This action cannot be undone.
Transferring ownership of managed apps
Navigate to the admin panel for your organization.
Next, click on Managed apps from the left side of the page.
Browse or search for the managed app you want to transfer. You’ll see some helpful information listed so that you can identify the name, type, current owner, and other usage metadata related to the managed app.
Click the … icon to the right of the managed app that you want to transfer.
Click Transfer ownership in the menu that appears.
From the dropdown menu, choose the appropriate user to transfer ownership of the managed app.
Finally, click Transfer.
A few notes:
Only members of the same org unit are eligible to become the new owner.
The new owner will be added as a collaborator to the development base.
The original owner will not be removed as a collaborator from the development base.
FAQs
What admin panel pages can I access based on my admin role type?
Note
Super admins and org unit admins can access all of the category pages listed below.
All other roles’ access is individually noted below.
Integration admin can access the “Integrations & development” section,
Brand admins can access the “Org resources” section.
Can I call managed app development bases via the Airtable API?
API calls are not supported for Managed App development bases. Calls to a development base will result in a 403 permissions error. However, API calls can still be made to bases where a managed app or component has been installed.
