How to manually add an android API to SDK manager?

I want to emulate an android phone on 4.2.2, whereas SDK only have the API 22 (5.1.1) available.

I know i can download it with the SDK manager but i have no acces to internet on this computer.

So is it possible to manually download android 4.4.2 and add it to SDK ?

Download the API you want on another computer. Then simply go to your SDK folder. You will find a folder called platforms. Copy that folder to your other computer in your SDK folder.

You can do it. Basically you need to copy and paste the already downloaded files from associate folders such as platforms. But make sure you copy everything else it will shown as broken.

Download the SDK from another computer. The SDK are stored in $ANDROID_SDK_HOME/platforms

After that, copy the Sdk back to your computer
