Current creation options
Creation options depend on the current app catalog and desktop release. Background jobs, scheduled jobs, standalone AI Agent app types, data app flows and desktop app installers are not currently offered in the desktop creation picker. Existing records of those types do not establish that a new user can create or publish them through the current UI.
You can use Automations for scheduled work and Agent Cloud to add hosted agents to your product. These are separate from a hidden app-type entry.

Preview the right result
Web and mobile apps have a visual preview. An API service or data app should be checked through its inputs, outputs and logs; a structured response is not a broken website. A preview alone does not confirm production deployment. Keep the service that owns your business records clear. A data app can process and transform information while your app’s backend applies its authorization and business rules. Do not assume every SDK capability runs directly in every app or client runtime.Several apps, one project
Publishing a mobile app is different
Web apps publish to an address. Phones do not work that way — an app has to get onto a device, and there is more than one way to do that. See Putting an app on a phone.Next
