# Annoto Only Insights dashboard Manual Integration

This document shows how to add only the  Annoto insights dashboard as an external tool using XML.

**Notes:**

* External apps can also be configured using XML in sub-accounts.
* Manually configuring an external app is an account permission. If you cannot configure an external app, this permission has not been enabled for your user role.
