Chapter 6. Asset repository

Business Rules, Process definition files and other assets and resources created in Business Central are stored in Asset repository, which is otherwise known as the Knowledge Store.
Knowledge store is a centralized repository for your business knowledge. It connects with the GIT repository that allows you to store different kinds of knowledge assets and artifacts at a single location. Business Central provides a web front-end that allows users to view and update the stored content. You can access it using the Project Explorer from the unified environment of Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite.
