The Ruleflow pop-up menu opens when you right-click on a Ruleflow's canvas. This menu provides quick access to many frequently used functions specific to managing the file and the canvas.

Note: You might see a menu item Remove from Context. It is a standard operator yet not used in the Ruleflow editor.

See Object commands on the Ruleflow context-sensitive menu for commands that affect objects on the canvas.

The three sections highlighted above are the file and canvas related menu commands on the Ruleflow pop-up menu.

Package and Deploy Decision Services

Lets you move the Ruleflow immediately to compilation and deployment as a Decision Service. Forces you to save all changes, then opens the Package and Deploy Decision Services dialog. In the Package and Deploy wizard, you can export Ruleflows in the Corticon Rules JSON Schema format. When selected, the next wizard page lets you export one or more Ruleflows in the project to a directory of your choice. The resulting JSON file names will be derived from the Decision Service name and version number, following the same logic currently used to generate .eds file names during the deployment process.
