# Install Scale3 CLI

To install Scale3 CLI you can either find your previous install directory or start by downloading the install script. For this exercise, we walk through downloading the script.

* SSH in to the node you want to install the cli on.
* Download the install script and change the permissions

```bash theme={null}
curl -L -G --fail "https://web-backend.scale3production.com/cli/binary" | tar -xz
chmod a+x uninstallcli.sh
```

* Run the install script

```bash theme={null}
./installcli.sh -k <YOUR_API_KEY>
```

* This completes the installation of the Scale3 CLI on your node. You can see [Monitoring](/nodepilot/linking-a-node) section to setup monitoring and [Logging](/logging/getting-started) section to setup logging
