Our organization will be using a request-based system to manage which Chrome extensions can be installed. Follow the steps below to request an extension you'd like to use.
Step 1: Visit the Chrome Web Store
- Go to https://chrome.google.com/webstore.

Step 2: Request the Extension
Important: You must notify the Service Desk after submitting your request.
