# Extension Installation

Extensions follow common installation patterns that look something like this:

1. Deploy the extension within your infrastructure.
2. Make sure the extension is reachable and known by the Steadybit agent. Please check [Install Agent -> Extension Registration](https://docs.steadybit.com/install-and-configure/install-agent/extension-registration) for details.

Most extensions will require extension-specific configuration. For example, the Kong extension needs to know how to reach and authenticate with Kong API gateways, while the AWS extensions require the configuration of IAM roles. As a result, no single set of instructions covers all extensions. However, extensions' documentation should describe the exact configuration and installation steps.

## Manage your Extensions

In the platform, you can manage your extensions via the extensions tab. You can see the extensions that are currently installed. Go to [Settings -> Extensions](https://platform.steadybit.com/settings/extensions) to see the list of installed extensions.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.steadybit.com/integrate-with-steadybit/extensions/extension-installation.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
