# Polkadot-JS Extension
**Creating a new account**
Install the Polkadot-JS [browser extension](https://polkadot.js.org/extension/) on Chrome or Firefox.
Once installed, click on the Polkadot-JS extension icon to open up the account menu. Create one by selecting the plus sign (+) and following the instructions. Be sure to write down your recovery seed; it is the only way to recover access to your account.
You should see your newly created accounts when opening the extension’s menu.
#### Importing an Existing Account
To import an existing Substrate account, click on the plus sign (+) in the upper right corner of the extension modal and select “Import account from pre-existing seed” instead. Enter your seed phrase, give a name to your account and enter the password that will be required when signing extrinsics.
#### Connecting to Creditcoin
Polkadot-JS APPS is a web UI for interacting with Substrate based nodes like Creditcoin. It allows users to interact with the Creditcoin blockchain.
Open the [Polkadot-JS UI ](https://polkadot.js.org/)site using either the Polkadot hosted or IPFS version.
In the upper-left corner, click on the network ID to open the menu and select “custom endpoint” at the bottom of the menu.
Enter the URL for the desired Creditcoin network.

Click on Switch to apply connect to your node.

## 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.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.creditcoin.org/wallets/how-to-connect-your-wallet-to-creditcoin/polkadot-js-extension.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
