DIY STEPS

Completing your Project in ReX

  • After finishing your ReX project, a confirmation modal will appear.

  • A checkbox labeled “Auto-link to Studio project” will be selected by default.

  • If you leave this box checked and click “Develop in SimGate Studio", your project will automatically open in Studio Preview Mode.


If You Uncheck “Auto-link to Studio”

You’ll be prompted to enter a release name before exporting.


Then, follow the legacy workflow:

  1. Go to Studio and open a new project.

  2. Click the ReX icon in the top navigation.

  3. Locate your project and import it.

  4. From the dropdown menu, select the project you just exported.

  • Authors can also;

    • Search for their ReX project using a dropdown menu, and search feature.

    • Use the second filter available to narrow results by release.

    • View the Release notes that are now visible for each project and release, so they can see what's included.

  • If a page already exists in your Studio project, an arrow icon will appear. This indicates that the page will be updated with the latest content from ReX.

Your ReX project will load in the panel below the drop down.

  • You can choose to update the entire flow and all pages or just individual pages.

To proceed, check the box confirming that you understand this action will overwrite the current flow, and then click the Import button.

After the import is complete, click the View Flow button to see your project within Studio.


FAQ

In Studio, which release versions will show up in the dropdown?

  • The import dropdown list will fill with every project you have exported from ReX, but it will only show the latest release for each project.


​Why didn't my export show up as an option in the dropdown in Studio?

This could happen for a few reasons:

  1. You must be logged in to ReX via your NEW ReX enterprise login link which looks something like this: https://XXX.regis-co.com/rex .... IF you logged into ReX via the old link and authentication process, (https://rex.regis-co.com) you will not be able to export from ReX to Studio.

  2. Do you have access to multiple enterprises? If so, you might have logged in to a different enterprise, in which case your export will be associated with the same enterprise in Studio in which you originally logged into.

    1. No worries if this happens - you can open the export into a new project in one enterprise in Studio and then duplicate it to the other enterprise.

What if I want to make edits to my ReX project after I export to Studio?

  • Update your linked Studio Project

    • Click Import in ReX.

    • Select Export to SimGate Studio.

    • Your linked project will reopen in Studio, launching the Import Modal set to “Import Individual Pages.”

    • You’ll see your Studio pages and can select which ones to bring into the flow.

    • Then once you select import, you will be directed to the Pages view in Studio.

    • Note: When working with a linked project, you won’t be able to import a different ReX project through the Studio import modal (in that linked project). To import a new ReX project, you must create a new Studio project.
