# Viewing app origination information

# Viewing app origination information in ServiceNow Studio {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated May 27, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
View app origination information on the App details page in ServiceNow Studio to determine where an app was created and which environment to use for editing and deployment.

## What does the App details page show? {#viewing-app-origination-information-in-sns__section_sqx_wdj_q2c}

Each App details page shows whether the app was created in Creator Studio or created in ServiceNow IDE and converted to Fluent. Apps created in ServiceNow Studio do not display a badge. This information determines whether the app can continue to be edited and deployed through ServiceNow Studio, or whether it must be opened and deployed in a different environment.

## How do I edit an app created in Creator Studio? {#viewing-app-origination-information-in-sns__section_y4v_m2j_q2c}

Only apps created in Creator Studio can be edited in Creator Studio. Creator Studio supports only a subset of the metadata supported in ServiceNow Studio.

Open an app in Creator Studio by selecting the more options icon ![]() on the Navigator panel or the App details page and selecting Open with Creator Studio. For more information, see [Building apps with Creator Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/y1r771tvEMJUthhFmHTgPg "By now, your admin has set up Creator Studio, given you permission to build an app, and you've got a great idea for a request-fulfillment app! How should you think about using Creator Studio to create your app?").

## How do I deploy an app created in ServiceNow IDE? {#viewing-app-origination-information-in-sns__section_w5j_s3j_q2c}

Apps created in ServiceNow IDE can be edited in ServiceNow Studio.  
Important:  
Apps created in ServiceNow IDE or converted to Fluent cannot be deployed from ServiceNow Studio. Deploy these apps using the ServiceNow IDE.
When you see the Fluent badge on an app, follow the normal app deployment process used in the ServiceNow IDE. For more information, see [Developing applications with the ServiceNow IDE](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Y6MFoUB3aWQX24punQy57g "Create and develop applications in source code with the ServiceNow IDE. Build applications to make your changes available across an instance and collaborate with users of any skill set.").

## How do I filter apps by origination environment? {#viewing-app-origination-information-in-sns__section_lvb_qml_y2c}

Access Creator Studio or Fluent apps using the filter in the Apps section of the Navigator panel. Select the Creator Studio or Fluent options to display only those apps.

For more filtering options, select Open list. Use the classic UI16 list sorting and filtering options to find the apps you need. The IDE Created column shows which internal development
environment the app was created in.
