Download from the NuGet server

You need to add the Telerik package server (https://nuget.telerik.com/v3/index.json) to the package sources in visual studio.

The NuGet v2 server at https://nuget.telerik.com/nuget will be sunset in November 2024. The new v3 protocol offers faster package searches and restores, improved security, and more reliable infrastructure. To redirect your feed to the NuGet v3 protocol, all you have to do is to change your NuGet package source URL to https://nuget.telerik.com/v3/index.json.

  1. First open the Options window:

    installation-deployment-and-distribution-install-using-nuget 002

  2. Add new source and add the server to the Source field:

    installation-deployment-and-distribution-install-using-nuget 004

  3. When the Package Source is selected you will be prompted for a user name and a password. Use the credentials for your Telerik Account:

    installation-deployment-and-distribution-install-using-nuget 005

  4. Then you can just select and install the desired NuGet packages.
