For some extensions, a separate account needs to be created before use.
To install an extension:
- Open Docker Desktop.
- From the Dashboard, select Add Extensions in the menu bar. The Extensions Marketplace opens on the Browse tab.
- Browse the available extensions. You can sort the list of extensions by Recently added, Most installed, or alphabetically. Alternatively, use Filters to search for extensions by category or whether they have been reviewed or not.
- Choose you extension and select Install.
From here, you can select Open to access the extension or install additional extensions. The extension also appears in the left-hand menu and in the Manage tab.
There are two types of extensions available in the Extensions Marketplace:
- Docker-reviewed extensions
- Self-published extensions
Docker-reviewed extensions are manually reviewed by the Docker Extensions team to ensure an extra level of trust and quality. They appear as Reviewed in the Marketplace.
Self-published extensions are autonomously published by extension developers. They appear as Not reviewed in the Marketplace.
Update an extension
You can update any extension outside of Docker Desktop releases. To update an extension to the latest version:

You can uninstall an extension at any time.
Note
Any data used by the extension that’s stored in a volume must be manually deleted.
- From the menu bar, select the ellipsis to the right of Extensions.
