Unselect “Run in Interactive mode” to run the project in the background if you want to use appRules during the execution. (if you have specified Viewxxxx activities (Base Toolbox) or display results in the activities definition, they will not be displayed during the execution)
The Project is Run by Default as a process launch by the HostService or IIS, but you can also Run it remotely using a selected WebApi Service (Run On server list) - in this case the service must be defined in File-->Master Admin Settings-->WebApi Server Definitions.
Debug (tick this checkbox if you want to log every activities execution details during execution - this info is saved in a file accessible from the Logs/Statistics -> System Log Files menu option - the file name is : project name_timestamp.log - file location: C:\ProgramData\appStrategy\PortalData\Default\Logs)

Click the Run button at the top of window to start the execution.
At the end of the execution, click on the Logs/Stats button in the project ribbon to display the project execution statistics
If you tick the View execution Flow checkbox, the process shows the activities executed at run time (in green with a delay at each step specified in the Delay field) and an Execution flow window displayed at runtime allows you to end the execution flow display or cancel the job.
You can also schedule the workflow to run at a specific time or regularly: see Schedule a Project
