# How to: Add a Dependency

Learn how to **add a dependency to a versioned application**. Dependencies are separate (child) versioned applications that your primary (parent) application requires to function.

> Understand what dependencies are, and how they work in our [Introduction to Dependencies](/v1/docs/introduction-to-dependencies) article.

## Adding a Dependency

To add or manage dependencies, access the **Manage Dependencies** page of the parent application.

> [!WARNING]
> Both parent and child applications must have Application Versioning enabled, so you can select a child dependency in your parent application.

To add a dependency from the Manage Dependencies page:

1. At the top right of the page, click **+ Add Dependencies**. The Add Dependencies modal displays.
2. Click **Select Version** for the dependency you want to add.

> [!WARNING]
> Only applications with Application Versioning enabled display in this modal. You can only select one dependency at a time.

3. From the **Select an Application Version** drop-down, select the version of the dependency application you want to use.

> [!NOTE]
> NOTE
> 
> The most recent version is selected by default.
4. Click **Confirm Add Dependency**. The browser returns to the Manage Dependencies page.
5. Repeat the process to add more dependencies to your parent application.
