PGD CLI is available for most Linux distributions. You can install it from the EDB repositories, which you can access with your EDB account. PGD users and EDB Cloud Service users, including those on a free trial, have an EDB account and access to PGD CLI.
Obtain your EDB subscription token
To install the PGD CLI, you will need an EDB Repos 2.0 token to gain access to the EDB private software repositories. For instructions on obtaining this token, see: Get your token.
Set the EDB_SUBSCRIPTION_TOKEN environment variable
Once you have the token, execute the command shown for your operating system, substituting
your token for <your-token>.
export EDB_SUBSCRIPTION_TOKEN=<your-token>
Then run the appropriate commands for your operating system.
