TL;DR: PagerDuty’s App Store groups 400-plus integrations that help teams detect, triage, and resolve incidents faster, but the article also shows how tightly incident response now depends on SaaS visibility, lifecycle control, and access governance according to Zluri. The governance problem is not integration count, but whether identity, renewals, and deprovisioning keep pace with the sprawl those integrations create.
Editorial analysis by NHI Mgmt Group, based on content published by Zluri: “Top 10 Apps in PagerDuty App Store”.
By the numbers:
- PagerDuty’s App Store offers over 400 apps and integrations for incident management.
Key questions
Q: What should teams do first when SaaS integrations start multiplying across incident-response tools?
A: Start with a complete integration inventory that records the app, owner, permissions, and business purpose.
Q: Why do delegated SaaS integrations complicate identity governance?
A: They complicate governance because the access is often granted by business users or vendor workflows, yet the blast radius reaches production data and privileged APIs.
Q: What breaks when SaaS management platforms cannot discover all connected apps?
A: When discovery is incomplete, the organisation loses the inventory needed for access review, offboarding, and risk assessment.
Practitioner guidance
- Baseline every connected SaaS app Build and maintain a complete inventory of all applications integrated into incident-response workflows, including owners, permissions, and business purpose.
- Tie renewals to access reviews Require renewal decisions to reflect current usage, access scope, and business need so auto-renewals do not preserve stale SaaS access.
- Govern integration offboarding Remove or disable integrations when a business relationship, workflow, or user group no longer requires them, and verify the associated permissions are revoked.
Bottom line: PagerDuty-style integration hubs create a wider SaaS identity surface, and that surface needs lifecycle governance, not just operational convenience.

Integration sprawl is an identity governance problem, not an operations bonus. PagerDuty-style app stores can improve response speed, but each added integration expands the number of identities, permissions, and lifecycle events that must be governed. The category is drifting from simple tool connectivity toward access surface management. Practitioners should treat integration inventory as part of the identity programme, not a separate operations catalogue.
A question worth separating out:
Q: How should security teams govern app renewals and deprovisioning together?
A: Treat renewal and offboarding as one lifecycle decision. If an app is no longer needed, the contract renewal should not preserve the access path, and if the business still needs the app, the associated permissions should be reviewed before renewal. That alignment reduces stale access and wasted spend at the same time.
