He began acting at the age of six in musical theatre and made his on-screen debut in the short film The Maiden and the Princess (2011). Fogelmanis first gained widespread recognition for his role as Farkle Minkus, the lovable and dorky friend, on the Disney Channel original series Girl Meets World (2014–2017), a sequel to Boy Meets World. Following his time on the Disney Channel, he transitioned to more diverse roles, including starring in the psychological horror film Ma (2019) alongside Octavia Spencer. More recently, he has taken on a main role as Nathan Walter in the Netflix teen drama series My Life with the Walter Boys (2023–present), a character who is openly gay and navigates his first relationships. In 2024, Fogelmanis took on his first lead film role as Ben DeBacker in the coming-of-age drama I Wish You All the Best, based on the best-selling novel. In the film, he plays a non-binary high school junior who is kicked out of their family's home after coming out.

Fogelmanis has also appeared in a satirical thriller series, a Hulu anthology horror episode, and is known for his work in music videos for artist Conan Gray.
