# Extensions

### Extending Management Dashboard

The Management Dashboard allows you to connect external custom modules and embed them into the application. This way, you have everything at hand in a single place.

The **Extensions** module is the place where you can see all your embedded custom extensions and use them directly from the Management Dashboard.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This node is visible **only** when you have enabled some custom extensions. Otherwise, the Extensions node doesn't appear in the Management Dashboard.
{% endhint %}

As a prerequisite for the extensions, connect a custom module and have it available in Management Dashboard. For the configuration details, see:

* [Extensions](/ce/management-dashboard/administration/extensions.md) guide in the administration section that shows how to create a connection.
* [Enabling Custom Extensions](/ce/extensibility-and-integrations/extensibility-cases/custom-extensions.md) guide that shows how to create a connection, with an example use case.
