Is it possible to import functions from workspace scripts inside Background runnables?

One (probably stupid) question - is it possible to import functions from workspace scripts inside Background runnables? The same import works in other workspace script, but results an error when added to background runnable:

The import is as simple as: from .temp import main as mmm. Both app and script are within the same user.

I think one of the issue is the name 1111 Can you give your app another name that start with a letter

You're right, it works when the app name starts from letter, thanks.
