-
If your app version changed recently, select the extra options button in the Apps field, and select Refresh to use the most recent version of your app.
-
For an app to be available to the Create App Task activity, it must be an action app and it must be deployed to Orchestrator.

The automation should run from the same folder in which the action app was deployed. You can specify the folder name in Create App Task.
