Manifest files contain metadata that describe all development objects required for a specific project developed in Workflow Studio. The manifest plays a key role when sharing and deploying your project to team members and environments. After you create a new manifest or update an existing one, you need to build the manifest. When you build manifests, Workflow Studio will ensure all output files (.pub, assemblies and external files) for manifest items are present, including those used in workflows and activities of which you were not aware. To complete this operation, Workflow Studio will restart several times.
...
In Workflow Studio, open the Deployment pane by selecting either Deployment Services from the Common ribbon or Deploy from the Build ribbon.
Click the Open Manifest button located above the Build Order pane.
Search for and select the manifest file you want to package for deployment.
You should see the manifest tree open.
Click Build.
Click Yes to confirm that you want to continue.
Wait for Workflow Studio to complete the build operation. This requires one or more restarts.
Review and close the Batch Activity Log.
