   For the User Guide update, I understand the thinking behind adding two main 
bullets. But to reduce repetition, I thought we could add something like this:
   
   `- *Download flow definition*: This option allows the user to download the 
flow definition of the process group as a JSON file. The file can be used as a 
backup or imported into a link:https://nifi.apache.org/registry.html[NiFi 
Registry^] using the <<toolkit-guide.adoc#nifi_CLI,NiFi CLI>>. There are two 
choices when downloading a flow definition:
   
   ** *Without external services*: Controller services referenced by the 
selected process group but outside its scope (e.g., services in a parent group) 
_will not be_ included in the flow definition.
   ** *With external services*: Controller services referenced by the selected 
process group but outside its scope (e.g., services in a parent group) _will 
be_ included in the flow definition.
   
   (Note: If "Download flow definition" is selected for a versioned process 
group, there is no versioning information in the download. In other words, the 
resulting contents of the JSON file is the same whether the process group is 
versioned or not.)`
