Installing PGD CLI on Linux v5.6
PGD CLI is available for most Linux distributions. You can install it from the EDB repositories, which you can access with your EDB account. PGD users and BigAnimal users, including those on a free trial, have an EDB account and access to PGD CLI.
Obtain your EDB subscription token
These repositories require a token to enable downloads from them. To obtain your token, log in to EDB Repos 2.0. If this is your first time visiting the EDB Repos 2.0 page, you must select Request Access to generate your token. Once a generated token is available, select the Copy icon to copy it to your clipboard, or select the eye icon to view it.
Set the EDB_SUBSCRIPTION_TOKEN environment variable
Once you have the token, execute the command shown for your operating system, substituting
your token for <your-token>.
export EDB_SUBSCRIPTION_TOKEN=<your-token>
Then run the appropriate commands for your operating system.

If this command returns an error like curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404, check that you entered the correct token.
