## Capabilities and technical details

Plugins are activated at the session creation stage, meaning the system responsible for creating the session must specify which plugins will be used. To enable a plugin in a session, the system administrator only needs to provide the URL of the plugin's *manifest* file. This file contains the necessary information for loading the plugin in the browser, as well as details about its integrations with the server. Plugins may also accept configurations; in such cases, in addition to the manifest URL, the system responsible for creating the session must also specify these configurations.
