Creating Apps
A new app is created from a build. A build is a specific version of the UiPath Process Mining.
An app is defined by a revision. A revision is a specific version of all files that together define an app.
- Application project file
- Settings file
- Images
- Project-related data
-
Extra files (e.g. Help files)
The main file of your app is stored in your workspace and has the extension.mvp
.Note: This applies to apps, discovery accelerators and connectors.
You can create a new empty app, but it is also possible to create a new app which is based on an released version of an app.
Follow these steps to create a new empty app.

It is not necessary anymore to create a branch in a separate step. The new app functionality does that automatically for you.
For a creating a connector see Deploying a Connector.
It is possible to create an app from an existing released app, a so-called Base app. This enables you to use the released app as a template for your app to which you can make modifications to your own needs. Moreover, you can upgrade your app and merge any modifications you made when a new version of the Base app is released.
Follow these steps to create an app which is based on a Base app.
