Top Corteza System Features
API Connectivity
Reach any part of Corteza via an API and transform and control the data as you like via our Integration Gateway. Corteza’s REST API lets you push data in or pull data out of any Corteza application, so you can grab whatever optimized data you want and put it where you need it.
Open Standards
Collaborate across and between any organization. Corteza follows best practices for:
▶︎ OpenID Connect, OAuth 2, SAML, SCIM Authentication and ID Management
▶︎ REST API and Integration Gateway
▶︎ BPMN 2.0 Workflows
▶︎ ActivityStreams/ActivityPub Sharing and Federation
▶︎ JSON and CSV data formats
▶︎ WCAG 2.1 Accessibility
▶︎ Internationalization
Data Harmonization
Share records between any Corteza-based systems in a standardized, usable way. Corteza connects with data from different sources in different formats and transforms it into a common open format and integrates seamlessly with legacy environments so developers can tailor legacy data before deploying it in data models and applications.
Design Studio
Style your Corteza user interface and all of your applications any way you like. Tweak your color scheme or swap out the entire stylesheet to fit your brand guidelines and make Corteza fully your own. Combined with CSS, you have complete control over how your Corteza and apps look, including adding images to the background, creating transparencies, changing fonts, changing the border radius on cards and buttons and more.
Importing/Exporting
Export and import complete app configurations, workflows and record data without limits in the following formats:
▶︎ App Configurations – YAML
▶︎ Workflows – YAML
▶︎ Record Data – JSON or CSV
Corteza uses its Envoy subsystem to import data and map imported legacy data to new application data models.
Database Independent
Don’t be stuck with one database. Corteza supports MySQL and PostgreSQL databases with others to be added, along with support for multiple, simultaneous database sources.
Data Access Layer
Isolate code from the presentation and business layers, or pull data from different data stores (database server, flat files, web services, whatever else) or when changing the underlying database such as when moving from one relational database such as PostgreSQL to MySQL and then abstracting the underlying database.
Cloud-Ready Architecture
Scale horizontally or vertically. Corteza is cloud-ready and deployable via Docker so that Corteza can run on any major OS and is easy to maintain.
Add CSS to Any Part of Corteza
Create an individualized look for your Corteza by adding custom styles via CSS. Customize the color, style and size of fonts, buttons and other elements to create a unique style and look for any element, app or for the entire Corteza front end.
Cloud-to-Cloud Data Federation
Corteza can federate data records on a many-to-many basis, allowing organizations to share selected data at scale between any Corteza-based systems in a standardized, usable way in near real-time.
Local Developer Environment
Set up an offline environment for developing or testing apps and workflows.
Role-Based Access Controls
Control who can do what with your Corteza. Let users create, modify or work with apps, workflows or integrations according to their roles or responsibilities.
Admin Console
Manage users, authentications and access across all applications and system features with role-based permissions and multi-factor authentication.
Advanced Search Functionality
Let users search any part of Corteza according to access permissions, including data federated from third-party Corteza instances.
Data Privacy Features
Configure and describe where and how sensitive data is stored on a module-field level, giving administrators more control over data privacy and managing private data. The Data Privacy Console allows users to request to remove, change or download personal data.
Multi-Factor ID
Require users to provide two or more means of verification to access your Corteza of web apps.
OpenID Connect/OAuth2
Let your users use their social media credentials to log into your Corteza or web apps.
SAML
Enable single sign-on. Connect Active Directory to Corteza so users can use their Active Directory ID to log into Corteza or access multiple web apps with a single set of login credentials.
SCIM
Automatically apply permissions according to predefined roles and map roles in your LDAP server to roles in Corteza so you can use your existing security policy without interruption.
Templates
Use templates to customize your Corteza and create customized email and document templates.
Internationalization
Corteza is internationalized according to the i18n standard, which means that Corteza can support localization into any of the Earth’s 7,000+ languages so that any culture, group, organization or nation can use Corteza.
Top Application Development Features
Low-Code App Builder
Use Corteza’s block-based drag-and-drop app builder to create, deploy and iterate apps with ease. Corteza is built-in Golang, a multi-threaded language created specifically for scalability and processing efficiency. Front ends are delivered in Vue.js, a lightweight and highly popular JavaScript framework that runs efficiently in the user’s browser.
Visual Workflow Builder
Easily create intuitive workflows and automations within and between applications and Corteza instances.
Flexible Data Modeling
Easily build unlimited, highly configurable data fields and create relationships between them.
Scalable Architecture
All data models are stored in Corteza’s backend and are separated from the UIs you create with Corteza so you can reuse models, insert additional elements on the fly and factor them into the UI retrospectively without impacting your production model.
Chart and Page Builder
Easily create dashboards and add components such as charts, metrics or iframes to all your application pages. Create and customize visual UIs for your process applications for easy monitoring, management and analysis.
Advanced Reporting
Generate an unlimited number of reports across database tables and Corteza applications at any level of granularity. Track performance indicators to pinpoint process inefficiencies. Create detailed reports with no need to export data to external systems.
Top Integration Features Features
REST API

Integration Gateway
Connect with any third-party source, whether it supports a REST API or not. Pre-filter data payloads it receives from third-party systems – or use it to call on Corteza Workflow to process data or perform further actions on it, including post-filtering and sending it to a third-party system.
Integration Flows
Create integration flows that automate data transfers between different applications, siloed data sources and third-party systems.
App-to-App Integration
Connect applications, systems or data located on-premises or in the cloud and automatically implement interfaces and data flows to create and manage the integrations.
Microservice Integration
Automatically create and publish APIs to support microservices to avoid designing and building them in-house.
Data Integration
