How to get integration plug-ins

R and IBM SPSS Statistics - Essentials for R

Starting with IBM® SPSS® Statistics 28.0, both R 4.0 and IBM SPSS Statistics - Essentials for R are automatically installed with the product. IBM SPSS Statistics - Essentials for R includes the IBM SPSS Statistics - Integration Plug-in for R and a set of extension commands that are implemented in R that provide capabilities beyond what is available with built-in SPSS Statistics procedures.

Notes:
  • Recent macOS versions (Catalina and Big Sur) require the manual installation of XQuartz (XQuartz/X11 are no longer included in macOS). For more information, see R runtime environment does not work in recent macOS versions
  • To determine which R packages are required for a specific R extension command , open the Extension Hub dialog (Extensions > Extension Hub), click the Installed tab, and then click More info for the desired extension. The required R packages are listed on the Extension Details dialog. R packages can be obtained from any of the R CRAN mirror sites, which are accessed from http://www.r-project.org/. Be sure to obtain the versions of the packages that match your R version. The version-specific packages are available from links on the "Contributed Packages" page of the CRAN mirror site.
