# Metamask MetaMask is an extension for accessing Harmony enabled distributed applications, or "dapps", from your browser. The extension injects the Harmony web3 API into every website's javascript context, so that Web3 applications can read from the blockchain. In this section, we walk through the process of installing MetaMask, configuring it on the Harmony network, and importing an existing account using a previously generated private key. {% hint style="info" %} **Continue through this section for more information on installing MetaMask, adding the Harmony network, importing an existing account, and more.** {% endhint %} ## --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
