### Connecting the Extension 1. Open the Omniverse environment you are working in (For example Omniverse Create or Code).

2. Unpack the Zip file of the extension to `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Kit\shared\exts\`

3. Open Extensions from the Window tab and search for echo3D and enable it. In the Launcher, search for ‘echo3D’ in the Extension tab and look for the result under ‘Third Party’. Enable the toggle.

### **Connecting an echo3D Project** Copy your [API Key](https://docs.echo3d.com/quickstart/get-api-key) and [Security Key](https://docs.echo3d.com/web-console/manage-pages/collections-and-sharing/security#secret-key) (if enabled) into the fields in the Omniverse extension and click Load Key.

### Loading Assets Simply click any of your project assets to add them to the Omniverse Viewer Additionally, you can search for publicly available assets by entering a keyword into the search bar.
