# Install Autonomous Engineer

Install Autonomous Engineer from the ServiceNow Store to make it available on your instance.

## Before you begin

Autonomous Engineer is a separate application available in the ServiceNow Store. Installing Autonomous Engineer also installs Build Agent as a dependency. Installing Build Agent alone does not install Autonomous Engineer.

-   Check your entitlements to confirm your access to Autonomous Engineer before installing.
-   Review the Autonomous Engineer application listing in the ServiceNow Store for information on dependencies, licensing or subscription requirements, and release compatibility.
-   You can use Autonomous Engineer in Developer Sandboxes. For more information, see [Accessing Build Agent in ServiceNow Studio](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/access-build-agent.md).

Role required: admin
