Group similar websites for one-shot policy deployment, and stock an extension repository so add-ons roll out automatically instead of one machine at a time.

## Create Website Groups

Bundle similar websites and web apps together so a single policy can target the whole group.

### Grouping websites

Websites and web applications of a similar nature can be added into groups to simplify management. They're typically used within Download Filter and Web Filter policies, letting you deploy a policy to the whole group in one go.

**Note:** If you modify a website group associated with a deployed policy, the changes take effect within the next 90-minute refresh cycle.

1. Go to **Manage → Website Group**.
2. Click **Create Website Group**.
3. Give the group a name and description.
4. Add websites either manually or by uploading a CSV file.

## Extension Repository

Stock the repository once, then distribute extensions to computer groups automatically.

### Adding extensions to the repository

Extensions can be efficiently deployed to computer groups by adding them to Endpoint Central MSP's extension repository. This automated distribution eliminates the need for individual installations.

1. Go to **Manage → Extension Repository**.
2. Click **Add Extensions** and choose the desired browser.
3. Add the extension either by uploading it directly or through the **Web Store** by entering the extension identifier, then click **Add**.

**Note:** Uploading extensions directly is only supported in the on-premise version.

Once you've added extensions to the repository, see [Distribute Extensions](https://www.manageengine.com/desktop-management-msp/help/browser-security/distribute-extensions.html) to push them out to target devices.
