Where is the most recent InDesign Server installer download?

I've found links on adobeprelease.com to very old versions. The most recent version there is 2020 (4 years ago). It provides only an Intel binary that won't run on Apple silicon Macs. 

 

Where is the current installer?

The IDS has moved to Admin Console now. Please refer the following article

A bit more information: my Admin console doesn't even show the Packages tab on the top nav. However, I've checked with a colleague who has his own Adobe CC All Products licenses in his account. His Admin console *does* show the Packages tab, but it does *not* offer the InDesign Server entitlement as described in the article you linked. (note: the UX is different now not surprisingly but the overall content is similar). There is apparently some undocumented way to provision an account to be able to download IDS. Do you have any suggestions about who I can contact for more information?

What type of license do you have for the IDS> Previously if you were part of prerelease forum you got the access to IDS for development purposes. However, now you need to first get an approval for a development version by sending an email as described in the linked article or purchase a license and then you shall get the access to installer package on the Admin Console.

Correct - I need a development license. We do not have one yet. My full query has 2 parts: 1) where is the installer and 2) how can I buy a license. The article makes it sound as though they are 2 separate activities but it now seems like buying the license is required *before* the Admin console will offer the IDS entitlement.
