Mike,
You brought up a good point... documentation is one of the things that
still needs to be done.
There is some information that might be helpful though...
I would suggest reading this Wiki page for the feature proposal of
"Configuration Management of Flows" [1].
There is also a JIRA from a few months ago with initial mock ups for
the registry UI [2].
As part of the RC I can provide some instructions on how it can be
tested with NiFi using PR 2219.
Thanks,
Bryan
