Now that you've created a new email asset, you are ready to create an application that will hold all the email records that the automated process will eventually be collecting. In this activity, you create an application to hold records of suspicious emails.

:::hint{type="info"}
You could import an existing application that has all of these details already built-in, but since you're just getting started, let's make one from scratch.
:::

To create a suspicious emails application:

1. From the global navigation menu, select **Applications and Applets.**
2. From the Applications and Applets home page, click the plus menu icon , and then select **Create a new application**.

3. On the Create Application, **General** tab, give your application a name, and (optionally) a description, and then click **Create.**

**Note:** By default, when you create a new application, a new workspace with the name of the application is created. If you have a specific workspace where you would like this application to reside, you can specify it now on the Workspace tab of the Application Settings.

5. From the Application Builder taskbar, select **Save**.
