Build and publish apps

Sigma Public allows you to create an embedded version of a Sigma workbook and share it as a publicly available application. After you make your app public, it can be discovered and used by other users on Sigma Public.

All Sigma Public accounts have a Build license, allowing you to create and edit AI apps in Sigma, using features like tables, input tables, actions, layout elements, and more.

📘

Sigma Public users do not have access to all Sigma features. You cannot access features that require configuration at the organization level or by a user with the Admin account type, such as adding connections, user attributes, API connectors, and more.

Create an app

To create a new app in Sigma Public:

1. Log into Sigma Public.
2. Select Create app.
3. Enter a name for the app.
4. (Optional) Enter a description for the app.

The new app is created. Only you can see it until you make it public.

Add data to an app

When creating an app in Sigma Public, you can use sample data provided by Sigma or upload your own data through a CSV upload.

🚩

Sigma Public users cannot create connections to data platforms like Snowflake or Databricks.

To access sample data provided by Sigma, add a data element that uses the provided sample connection as a data source.

Alternatively, you can Upload CSV data to work with your own dataset.

🚧

Never upload or share sensitive information to Sigma Public. See the Privacy Notice for Sigma Public.

Make an app public

After creating an app in Sigma Public, you can share it with other users by making it public.

Making an app public is distinct from publishing an app. In Sigma Public, you can select Publish to publish any changes from your current draft to the published version. However, even after selecting Publish, your app is not available to other Sigma Public users until you select Make App Public. For more information about document versions in Sigma and publishing a draft, see Draft and publish a workbook.

When you finish editing your app, select Publish to update the published version. To make the app visible to others, select Make App Public.

After making the app public, you can still make edits to a draft version without making them available to other users. To update the public app that other users see, select Publish to save your edits to the published version, then select Make App Public to make the updates visible to other users.

Manage your apps

You can view your apps, edit apps, delete apps, and manage their visibility on your profile:

1. Go to the Home page.
2. Select the profile icon, then select View profile.

The profile opens, with the Your public Apps tab selected by default.

3. (Optional) To view all apps, regardless of visibility, select All your Apps.
4. To edit or manage an app, select next to the title of the app, and select an option.

🚩

Apps created in Sigma Public cannot be shared or transferred to another Sigma organization.
