# Installing plugins
The easiest way to install plugins is by using the CLI tool grafana-cli which is bundled with grafana. Before any modification take place after modifying plugins, grafana-server needs to be restarted.
### Grafana plugin directory
On Linux systems the grafana-cli will assume that the grafana plugin directory is `/var/lib/grafana/plugins`. It's possible to override the directory which grafana-cli will operate on by specifying the --path flag. On Windows systems this parameter have to be specified for every call.
### Grafana-cli commands
List available plugins
```
grafana-cli plugins list-remote
```
Install a plugin type
```
grafana-cli plugins install <plugin-id>
```

```
grafana-cli plugins ls
```
Update all installed plugins
```
grafana-cli plugins update-all
```
Update one plugin
