She also voiced Stealth Elf in the Skylanders spin-off television series Skylanders Academy and Cinderella in the 2018 computer-animated musical comedy film Charming.
For Disney, she portrayed Maddie Fitzpatrick in the Disney Channel sitcom The Suite Life of Zack & Cody (she was also referenced in the episode "Lip Synchin' in the Rain") and Sharpay Evans in Disney Channel Original Movie's High School Musical film trilogy. She also reprised her role as Sharpay Evans in Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure and produced the 2014 sports telefilm Cloud 9. Additionally, she voiced the Lead Blueberry Scout in Disney/Pixar's A Bug's Life, Camille Leon in Kim Possible, and Candace Flynn in Phineas and Ferb from 2007 to the show's finale in 2015. A live picture of her can be seen as modified footage of Candace in "Lights, Candace, Action!". She was also mentioned in the Sonny with a Chance episode "Guess Who's Coming to Guest Star" and in the Good Luck Charlie episode "Scary Had a Little Lamb".
Aside from her acting career, Tisdale signed a contract with Warner Bros. Records, in which her singing in High School Musical released her debut studio album Headstrong (2007), which became a commercial success. Her second album Guilty Pleasure (2009) was released to less commercial success than its predecessor. Tisdale parted ways with Warner Bros. Records following the release of the album.
