If you're in a **Jupyter notebook** or similar environment, you can use the `!`
prefix to

Make sure to **restart your kernel** or runtime after installation (just like
you would when installing other Python packages) to make sure that the installed
pipeline package can be found.

### Installation from Python {#download-python}
Since the [`spacy download`](/api/cli#download) command installs the pipeline as
a **Python package**, we always recommend running it from the command line, just
like you install other Python packages with `pip install`. However, if you need
to, or if you want to integrate the download process into another CLI command,
you can also import and call the `download` function used by the CLI via Python.
<Infobox variant="warning">
Keep in mind that the `download` command installs a Python package into your
environment. In order for it to be found after installation, you will need to
**restart or reload** your Python process so that new packages are recognized.
