Installing the import command line interface (CLI)

To use the command line, you must install the import CLI on your local computer or on the computer that you use to import data.

Before you begin

  • Install Python 3.6.5 or later. If you want to use TLS 1.2, install Python 3.6.5 or later.

    Use a 3.x version. Version 2 is not supported.

  • If the preferred installer program (PIP) is not installed with your Python version, also install PIP.
  • Install the Requests package.

  2. Download the file siq4l-cli-1.4.0.tar.gz to the computer from which you want to import data into StoredIQ for Legal.
