What extensions are
Add-ons that give your workspace surfaces and behaviour it didn't have.
An extension is an add-on installed on your whole organization. It doesn't just unhide a button — it contributes real surfaces to the product.
| It can add | Example |
|---|---|
| A tab on a Noot | Canvas, Billing, Field, RFIs |
| A chip in a Noot's header | FOIA export, Public view |
| A badge on a task card | The SLA countdown |
| A panel in a task's detail | Billable time, SLA, Related RFIs |
| A section in Org settings | SLA policies, Shift patterns, Compliance log |
| A background job | SLA escalation sweeps, dependency ripple, RMM alert intake |
| A launcher tile | CRM |
A great deal of Noots is built this way, including areas that don't look like add-ons at all — Agendas, Kudos, NPS, Retros, Standups, Vendors, the CRM and Canvas are all extensions. That's deliberate: it means a workspace only carries the product it actually uses.
Where they come from
- An industry preset at setup, or from Org settings → Extensions → Industry Preset later.
- The Marketplace, one at a time, whenever you want.
Tip
In the extensions manager, every extension lists exactly what it contributes under What it adds — so you can see what changes before you install anything.
