Rocket.Chat Marketplace

The Rocket.Chat Marketplace is a centralized hub for discovering, installing, and managing apps that extend the functionality of your workspace. These apps range from integrations with third-party services to custom features designed to improve user experience.

Prerequisites

Before interacting with the Marketplace, ensure your workspace meets the following requirements:

• Your workspace must be registered on Rocket.Chat Cloud, regardless of your subscription plan.

• Your workspace version must be within the official support window.

• If your workspace is behind a firewall, whitelist marketplace.rocket.chat URL to list and install marketplace apps. Refer to the Firewall Configuration for a full list of required URLs.

Access the Marketplace

To access the Marketplace, click the Marketplace icon from the main menu. From here, you can navigate several key areas:

• Explore: Search and filter apps by category, status, and price. The tag next to an app on the marketplace means you need to upgrade your workspace to a higher version to use the app

• Installed: View all installed apps in your workspace to enable/disable, uninstall, configure settings, or view logs.

• Premium: View apps that require your workspace to be on a premium plan.

• Requested: Monitor a dedicated list of apps that workspace users have requested for installation.

• Private Apps: See all private apps that you installed on your workspace

Users with the Access marketplace permission can access the Rocket.Chat marketplace and request for any app they need in the workspace.

Types of Rocket.Chat Apps

There are two types of apps in Rocket.Chat: public and private apps.

Public apps

Public apps are diverse range of apps developed in-house by Rocket.Chat or by third-party developers. It includes free, paid, and plan-exclusive apps. Most public apps are premium and require a valid license.These apps are available through the Rocket.Chat marketplace.

Third-party developers can submit their own apps to the Marketplace. It requires a Rocket.Chat Cloud account and a registered publisher account. For detailed guidance, refer to the App Submission Guide.

You must purchase the Rocket.Chat paid apps to use them in your workspace, regardless of your subscription plan.

Private apps

Private apps are custom solutions you develop for your workspaces. They are managed directly within your workspace and are not listed publicly on the Marketplace. To build a custom app for your workspace, refer to the Rocket.Chat Apps-Engine guide.

App installation and usage limits by plans

• Community workspaces can install unlimited public apps even after reaching the enabled app limit.

• To enable new public apps on community workspaces after reaching the limit, you can disable existing enabled apps or upgrade to a premium plan.

• If a premium license expires and the workspace exceeds Community limits, all apps are disabled and the enabled app count resets to zero.

• From version 7.0 onward, private apps installed on Community workspaces are disabled by default.
