[!NOTE] {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_extensions %} are not the same as the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} extension, which you install in an external application to access {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} within that application. For more information on the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} extension, see "AUTOTITLE."
After you install a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_extension_short %} from {% data variables.product.prodname_marketplace %}, you can interact with that extension in a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %} conversation, asking questions and authorizing actions that combine the capabilities of the external tool and {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. For example, if you install the Sentry extension for {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}, you can use the extension to get information about Sentry issues, then create and assign related tracking issues on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}.
