Everything you need is in the link you posted under "Installation and configuration".

To sum up:
Step 1. Install the Add-on - this could be in your Search Head or HeavyForwarder depending on your deployment. (it has its own instructions, also linked there)
Step 2. Configure the Add-on
Step 3. Install and configure the App
