# Install NiFi Ingest

To install NiFi Ingest, follow these steps.

To install NiFi Ingest

1. Download the Apache NiFi zip or tar package from https://nifi.apache.org/.
2. Download the IDOL NiFi Ingest zip package for your chosen platform.
3. Extract the files from the Apache NiFi package into your chosen installation directory.

4. Extract the files from the IDOL NiFi Ingest zip package to the following locations, where `InstallDir` represents your Apache NiFi installation directory.

   Files | Source in zip package | Destination
   --- | --- | ---
   IDOL components for NiFi | `idol-nifi-framework*.nar` | `InstallDir/lib/`
   Files required to run KeyView | `filters/` | `InstallDir/filters/`

5. Micro Focus recommends that you set the environment variable `KEYVIEW_DIRECTORY` to the directory where you have installed the KeyView filters (for example, `InstallDir/filters`).

6. (Optional) The NiFi Ingest package includes an example configuration file that configures logging. This file is named `logback.xml`. If you want to use this, copy the file to the `conf/` folder in the Apache NiFi installation directory, replacing the `logback.xml` file that is included with Apache NiFi. Alternatively, you can customize the settings in `conf/logback.xml` to suit your needs.

   You can now install NiFi Ingest connectors or start Apache NiFi. For information about how to start and stop NiFi, or install NiFi as a service, refer to the NiFi documentation.
