Where should you start creating an application?

• A. Appian Designer
• B. Administration Console
• C. Knowledge Center
• D. Application Site

Answer: (A)

When you begin building an app in Appian, you start in Appian Designer. This is the development workspace where you define the app container and add all its components—data models, process models, interfaces, rules, and data types. It’s the place to structure and assemble everything that makes up the application.

The Administration Console handles system-wide tasks like environment configuration and user management, not the actual app creation. Knowledge Center is where you access documentation and learning resources, not a development space. The Application Site is the end-user runtime interface where people interact with the app after it’s built, not where you start developing.
