-
Own an active subscription license for an NI software product.
-
Have a valid service agreement, which could be SSP included or purchased with a subscription software license or included as part of your Volume License Agreement (VLA).
- If you have a Volume License Agreement (VLA) or Enterprise Agreement (EA), contact your Software Administrator for an installer or to request to be added to your organization's account to have an active entitlement.
- If you are a student, contact your Academic Volume License (AVL) Software Administrator for an installer.

You must also have a ni.com user account with your software license activated and registered to your account.
Note: If you have an active subscription software license or service agreement and need a version of NI software older than what is available on the NI website, please contact NI support.
Alternatively, if you have the installer for the software you need on another computer, you can transfer the installer folder to the target computer and run the installer. You will still need to activate this software.
