MaxCompute:Integrate the MaxCompute client

Last Updated:Mar 26, 2026

MaxCompute Studio integrates with the MaxCompute client, giving you direct CLI access to your MaxCompute projects without leaving IntelliJ IDEA.

Configure the client installation path

MaxCompute Studio includes the latest version of the MaxCompute client by default. To use a different version, configure a custom installation path.

  1. In IntelliJ IDEA, go to Settings > MaxCompute Studio > SDK & Console, then add the path to your client installation. To download a specific version, see the MaxCompute client download page.

  2. After saving, the configured client version appears.

Open the MaxCompute client

After configuring the client installation path, open a client session directly from any project in MaxCompute Studio.

  1. In the project browsing list, right-click the project you want to open and select Open in Console.

  2. Repeat the step above to open multiple client programs.
