Anypoint Studio 6 (Mule Runtime 3.5+)

In Anypoint Studio navigate to the "Help" menu and choose "Install New Software...". Press "Add" to open the Add Repository dialog.

From the "Add Repository" dialog press the "Archive..." button and browse to the .zip file present in the connectors/mule3 folder of the install.

After adding the archive expand the "Community" node to select the connector(s) you wish to add to your project and click "Next".

When the installation is complete the connectors will be visible in the "Mule Palette" window.

Anypoint Studio 7 (Mule Runtime 4.0+)

Each connector is provided as a .jar file which must first be added to the local Maven Repository before it can be used.

In Anypoint Studio, on the toolbar find the "Install Artifact into local repository" icon. This is next to the Save icons. Click this icon to open the dialog.

Browse to the .jar file on disk of the connector you wish to add.

After adding the .jar file to the local repository modify the pom.xml for your Mule Project to include the dependency.

Please see the readme.txt file included alongside the .jar files on disk for example XML for all connectors for the specific version.

For instance the following XML may be added to the dependencies in the pom.xml file to make use of the previous installed FTP Connector. Note, this version is just an example, see readme.txt for the exact XML to use in your version.

        <!-- nsoftware FTP --> 
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.nsoftware.connectors</groupId>
            <artifactId>nsoftware-ftp</artifactId>
            <version>16.0.6740</version>
            <classifier>mule-plugin</classifier>
        </dependency>

After modifying the pom.xml the Connector will now be visible at design time. For instance:
