# Plugin catalog
|
|
|
|
The Plugin catalog allows you to browse and manage plugins from within Grafana. Only Grafana server administrators and organization administrators can access and use the plugin catalog. The following access rules apply depending on the user role:
|
|
|
|
| Org Admin | Server Admin | Permissions |
|
