# Installing plugins via the Marketplace

The Marketplace is a section of the admin panel that lists all plugins that can be installed in a Strapi application. The Marketplace is accessible from General > Marketplace in the main navigation of the admin panel.

✏️ NOTE

Plugins can also be installed via the Command Line Interface (see Developer Documentation).

Interface of the Marketplace

The Marketplace displays each available plugin in a box, which contains:

  • the name of the plugin,
  • the description of the plugin,
  • indications on the current status of the plugin:
    • "Compatible with your app": indicates that the plugin is not installed yet but can be installed on your Strapi application
    • "Already installed": indicates that the plugin is already installed and available in your Strapi application

💡 TIP

Click on the icon next to the name of a plugin to be redirected to the plugin package in the Strapi GitHub repository.

To install a new plugin via the Marketplace:

  1. Go to General > Marketplace.
  2. Among the available plugin, choose the one you wish to install.
  3. Click on the Download button in the chosen plugin's box.
