If you are looking for community contributed extensions, please have a look at this page.

To proceed if you currently have the KNIME Desktop version installed, first start KNIME and then from KNIME's menu bar, select "File" -> "Install KNIME Extensions", which opens the KNIME update site window directly. If you currently have the KNIME Developer version installed instead, or if you have an existing Eclipse installation, first start KNIME/Eclipse and then from the menu bar, select "Help" -> "Software Updates". No matter what your starting point is in the prior sentences, the Update Wizard should now be open. On the left-hand side of the window, you should now see the KNIME site included. If this is not the case, you will need to include it by clicking the "Add..." button and entering the above mentioned URL.

Now you should see a listing of the different categories of the update site.

You may now select the features you want to install. Upon selecting each feature, you are provided with a short description. If you select a feature and receive an error message stating that the selected feature requires a certain other plugin as a dependency, click the "Select Required" button and it will attempt to auto-select all other dependencies for installation. (Note, that KNIME requires GEF 3.6.1; this may or may not already be installed in case you are using an existing Eclipse installation -- it may be necessary to install it in advance.)

Clicking "Next" will take you to the license agreement. If you agree, click "Finish" to download and install the selected features.
