# Step 1: Download files

To manually install PDI client, utilities, and plugins, you must first download the compressed installation file.

Perform the following steps to download the PDI ZIP file from the [Support Portal](https://support.pentaho.com/hc/en-us).

1. On the [Support Portal](https://support.pentaho.com/hc/en-us) home page, sign in using the Pentaho support username and password provided in your Pentaho Welcome Packet.
2. In the Pentaho card, click **Download**.

   The Downloads page opens.
3. In the **10.x** list, click **Pentaho 10.2 GA Release**.
4. Scroll to the bottom of the Pentaho 10.2 GA Release page.
5. In the file component section, navigate to the `Client Tools\PDI(Spoon)` folder.
6. Download the `pdi-ee-client-10.2.0.0-<build number>.zip` file.
7. (Optional) If you plan to perform any of the following tasks with the PDI client, also download the `pdi-ee-client-10.2.0.0-<build number>-hadoop-addon.zip` file:
   * Connect to a Hadoop cluster. See [Use Hadoop with Pentaho](https://github.com/pentaho/documentation/blob/main/PDIA/10.2/Install/Pentaho%20and%20Hadoop/Use%20Hadoop%20with%20Pentaho=GUID-70D70A5B-45E4-4C1C-9CD2-8580B0661BB1=3=en=.md) for information on Hadoop connections with Pentaho. Also see [PDI steps and entries included in the Hadoop add-on installation](/install/10.2-install/pentaho-installation-overview-cp/installation-of-the-pentaho-design-tools/install-the-pdi-tools-and-plugins/pdi-steps-and-entries-included-in-the-hadoop-add-on-installation-install-pdi-tools-and-plugins.md) for further details of what transformation steps and job entries are included in the add-on.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.pentaho.com/install/10.2-install/pentaho-installation-overview-cp/installation-of-the-pentaho-design-tools/install-the-pdi-tools-and-plugins/step-1-download-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
