   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.)`

   My initial impression of the UI is the same as Bryan's: "referenced" services could be downloaded with both options. It's more a matter of whether the services are in or out of the scope of the process group.
   
   Suggested alternative:
   
   - Without externally referenced services
   - With externally referenced services
   
   or if those are too long:
   
   - Without external services
   - With external services

   Hi @brandonJY ! Can you please take a look if you have some time? I think, as this change is connected to the registry, your input would be most useful. Many thanks!
