- Apps can be built by DRIP or third‑party developers
- You control which realms an app is installed to
- Permissions are scoped per app and per realm
- Multiple apps can work together to create end‑to‑end workflows
Think of apps as building blocks: install what you need, where you need it, and keep everything permissioned and auditable.
Install apps
1
Open the App Store
Browse available apps maintained by DRIP and third parties. Use categories and search to find what you need.
2
Review details and permissions
Check the app description, capabilities, and requested scopes. Confirm it supports your target realm(s).
3
Install to realm(s)
Choose one or more realms for installation. You can adjust permissions per realm during setup.
4
Configure settings
Complete any required configuration (permissions, channels, roles, webhooks, etc.). Test in a staging realm when possible.
5
Maintain, update, or uninstall
Keep apps up to date. If an app is no longer needed, uninstall it from specific realms or globally.
Tip: Start with a single realm to validate configuration, then roll out to additional realms.
Build your own
Build custom functionality that integrates with DRIP using our APIs and app model. Your app chooses its scopes, installs to specific realms, and can be published for others to use.App Development
