# Install the API Signer Docker Image

Follow these steps to install the API Signer Docker image from Fordefi's JFrog Artifactory.

1. In the Fordefi web console, navigate to **Settings** > **API Signer** and click **View Docker Credentials**. Alternatively, copy the complete login command from the API Signer installation wizard.

2. Log in to JFrog Artifactory, entering the password when prompted:

```bash
docker login -u fordefi fordefi.jfrog.io
```
3. Pull (or update) the latest Fordefi Docker image by running:

```bash
docker pull fordefi.jfrog.io/fordefi/api-signer:latest
```
If you're on an Apple Silicon Mac chip, the default pull command might fail or produce a platform-mismatch warning because the image is built only for `linux/amd64`. Pull it explicitly for that platform instead:

```bash
docker pull --platform linux/amd64 fordefi.jfrog.io/fordefi/api-signer:latest
```
4. To start the API Signer, run:

```bash
docker run --rm --log-driver local --mount source=vol,destination=/storage -it fordefi.jfrog.io/fordefi/api-signer:latest
```
To run the API Signer in the background (detached mode), issue the following command instead:

```bash
docker run --rm --log-driver local --mount source=vol,destination=/storage -d fordefi.jfrog.io/fordefi/api-signer:latest /api-signer run
```
