Use our Liquibase Secure installer.

If the Liquibase Installer does not start automatically after downloading, locate the Installer file in your Downloads directory and run it.

Note: If you downloaded a .zip or .tar.gz archive instead of using the Installer, extract it to a local directory.

Using a Secrets Management tool like Hashicorp Vault or AWS Secrets Manager is best to keep Liquibase license keys secure.

There are several ways to apply the Liquibase Secure license key:

To run Liquibase commands from any terminal window, you must add the Liquibase /bin directory to your system PATH. For detailed instructions, macOS, Linux, and Unix users can use this guide to adding a directory to your PATH.

When following the guide, be sure to:

• Use the full path to the /bin directory inside the folder where you extracted. For example: /usr/local/liquibase/bin

• Add the export line to your shell config file:

~/.zshrc if you're using Zsh (default on macOS 10.15+)

~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile if you're using Bash (common on Linux and other Unix systems)

Example line to add:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/liquibase/bin"

After saving the file, apply your changes by restarting your terminal or running:

source ~/.zshrc # or ~/.bashrc

Once added, open a new Command Prompt and run:

If it returns the version number, Liquibase is installed and ready to use.
