# 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 `idol-nifi-framework*.nar` files from the IDOL NiFi Ingest zip package 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/`

5. (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.
