MANAGE THIRD-PARTY DEVELOPERS & APPS

Manage third-party integrations from build to publish

Give third-party developers a guided path to build, submit, and publish integrations. Your team keeps visibility and control over what goes live.

THE CHALLENGE

You can't see who's building on your APIs or what they ship

Managing third-party integrations is usually scattered across Slack, email, and spreadsheets, with no single record of where anything stands. A single integration can pass through product, security, legal, and partnerships. At each handoff, projects stall, details get lost, and no one can see the full picture.

WHAT BECOMES POSSIBLE

What it looks like when you have the infrastructure to manage third-party integrations

You know exactly who is building on your APIs and what they've shipped.

Every developer registers, requests access, and submits an app through one system. That gives you a single record of who is in the program and where each integration stands. Nothing ships without your team seeing and approving it.

Integration projects finish instead of stalling halfway through the build

Developers follow a guided path with the docs, credentials, and resources they need at each stage. Partners can see where their app, listing, and security review stand at any point. Fewer projects stall, so more of the integrations you start actually reach customers.

You control what gets approved and published before anything goes live

Configurable review pipelines route each submission through the right technical, security, and legal checks. Approvals are captured in one place instead of scattered across inboxes. Apps publish only after they clear the gates you define, so you decide what reaches customers.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions teams ask before onboarding third-party developers

How do you manage third-party integrations?
You manage them by giving third-party developers one guided path to apply, access credentials, build, submit, and publish. Your team controls approvals at each stage. Developer Lifecycle Management connects intake, review, and publishing into one workflow. It keeps a clear record of who is building and where every integration stands, so nothing reaches customers without review.
Is this more than a developer portal?
Yes. A developer portal mainly gives developers access to docs and API keys. Developer Lifecycle Management adds the control layer around that access. It decides who gets approved into the program, what passes technical, security, and legal review, and where approved apps publish. Access becomes one part of a managed lifecycle rather than the whole story.
How does it work with our existing API gateway?
It works alongside it. An API gateway manages runtime access and traffic to your APIs. Developer Lifecycle Management manages the business lifecycle around them. It covers who applies to build, what gets approved, where apps publish, and how usage is tracked. You can keep your current gateway in place and connect the two through webhooks and automations.
Why not build developer onboarding and app review in-house?
You can stand up a developer portal and an intake form fairly quickly. The hard part is the connected workflow behind it: intake, credentials, multi-step approvals, publishing, and usage tracking. Keeping all of that maintained as your program grows is what pulls engineers off the core roadmap. That ongoing upkeep is the cost most teams underestimate.
Who owns managing third-party developers and apps?
Day to day, engineering and developer experience teams own the workflow. They run onboarding, API access, security and QA review, and app approval. Product and platform leadership usually own the developer lifecycle strategically and hold the budget for it. The work sits with engineering, while the decision to invest sits with product.
