Request and approve extensions

[!INCLUDE version-lt-eq-azure-devops]

If you don't have permissions to install extensions, you can request extensions instead. When another project member requests an extension, Project Collection Administrators receive an email notification. When a request gets approved, Azure DevOps automatically installs the extension.

Prerequisites

Category Requirements
Permissions - To request extensions: Contributor for your organization.
- To approve extensions: Member of the Project Collection Administrators group and Edit collection-level information permissions.
