# Embed a UiPath App

UiPath Apps "[is a cloud-based low-code application development platform](https://docs.uipath.com/apps/docs/introduction) that enables you to build and share enterprise-grade custom applications that deliver engaging user experiences".

With PixieBrix, you can embed UiPath Apps into any webpage, including 3rd-party pages, and automatically pass information from the page to the app

For example, you could embed a UiPath app in the Salesforce Service Console, passing in the case number and any other case information:

### Prepare your UiPath App for Embedding

Go to the UiPath App and publish the app if it has not been published already.&#x20;

### Embedding the UiPath App via Sidebar

**Create the Sidebar Panel**

* Create a Sidebar Panel starter brick
* Delete the Render Document brick
* Add an iFrame brick (paste the UiPath production URL in the url field of the brick)

### Passing Data to your UiPath App

**Add App Variables to UiPath Apps**

Add an App Variable to the UiPath App for each data variable you want to pass from PixieBrix to UiPath. For further walkthrough of adding App Variables, watch this [explanation video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew5Ks4jVhaA) or read [UiPath's documentation](https://docs.uipath.com/apps/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/set-external-context).

{% hint style="info" %}
To use the provided property in your application, add a Value Binding to the field. Alternatively/additionally, you can configure a "Value Changed" rule for the Textbox. See the [UiPath Apps documentation](https://docs.uipath.com/apps/docs/textbox) for more details
{% endhint %}

**Add URL Parameters to the iFrame in PixieBrix**

* Create a Sidebar Panel
* Delete the Render Document Brick
* Add a Construct URL brick
  * Paste the UiPath App production URL into the URL field
  * Switch the URL parameters field to type "Object Properties" by clicking on the X
  * Enter App Variables names in the property field and text or variables in the value field
