# Install Optional Components

Many IDOL features are available through NiFi Ingest. The following components are not included in the NiFi Ingest distribution but can be installed separately.

- IDOL Connectors. IDOL Connectors retrieve information from data repositories. With the IDOL NiFi Ingest framework you can deploy connectors as NiFi processors, rather than as separate components. To install a connector, obtain the `*.nar` file from the connector package. For a list of IDOL Connectors that are available through NiFi Ingest, see Connectors.
- IDOL Text. You can categorize documents using the EmbeddedContent processor. To install this processor, obtain the `*.nar` file from the IDOL Content package.
- IDOL Rich Media. You can run some types of media analysis, such as optical character recognition and speech-to-text, in NiFi Ingest without having to deploy a separate IDOL Media Server. To install the media analysis components, obtain the `*.nar` files from the Media Server package.

IMPORTANT: The `.nar` files supplied with IDOL components are platform dependent. For example, if you run IDOL NiFi Ingest on Linux, obtain the File System Connector `.nar` file from the File System Connector package for Linux.

IMPORTANT: Optional components depend on the NiFi Ingest framework. Before adding any optional components, ensure that you have installed the NiFi Ingest framework, as described in Install NiFi Ingest. The version numbers of the NiFi Ingest framework and optional components must match. If necessary, you can install several different versions of the NiFi Ingest framework.

To install optional components

1. Stop NiFi, if it is running.

2. Add the `*.nar` files for the optional components to the following location, where `InstallDir` represents your Apache NiFi installation directory:

   - Apache NiFi 1.9.0 or later

     `InstallDir/extensions/`

   - Apache NiFi 1.7.x or 1.8.0

     `InstallDir/lib/`

3. Start NiFi.
