An app is a BRIX component intended for creating and storing app items and business processes. For example, the Contacts app stores data about legal entities, their addresses, phone numbers, etc. Each added company will be an item of this app.
You can associate business processes with an app. In this case, data stored in the app will be automatically sent to the tasks assigned to users during the process execution. At each process stage, employees will receive all the information that they need to perform their tasks and make decisions.

Built-in apps
BRIX includes default built-in apps located in built-in workspaces that are ready for use. These are:
- In the System apps workspace: My legal entities and External users.
- In the CRM workspace: Leads, Deals, Companies, and Contacts.
If you navigate to a built-in app page, the underscore prefix appears before its name in the address bar, for example, _clients/_contacts.

You cannot export a built-in app as an individual system component, nor is it possible to copy or delete it. You can export such a built-in app as part of a built-in workspace or solution. Such an export has some peculiarities.
