Techniques are described for providing a built-in 'app' editor for an information technology (IT) and security operations application that enables users to create, modify, and test operation of apps under development within the editor. Some IT and security operations applications enable users to extend the applications by adding connectivity to third party technologies to run custom actions. For example, a user might create a custom app to enable an IT and security operations application to connect to an external service providing information about malicious Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, to connect to a relevant cloud provider service, or to interact with a firewall or other type of computing device used in a user's computing environment. Given the broad set of technologies that can be orchestrated by an IT and security operations application, apps broadly enable users to add custom functionality to interface with virtually any technology of interest.
