## Choose export format

### Choosing export format of Decision Table:

When exporting the decision table you can choose from two different file formats based on your further actions. For transporting rules to another space you can choose JSON format. If you want to modify a decision table and for example input more data in it, choose XLSX format.

### Choosing export format of other Rule types:

Other rule types - Rule Flows, Decision Tree and Scripting rule have a single export option - JSON format. These types should be created and modified in the DecisionRules application.

Once you choose the right format, your export will start automatically. The exported file can be found where your browser stores downloaded files.
