 Before you begin, read the [conceptual overview of Arc-enabled Kubernetes cluster extensions](conceptual-extensions.md) and review the [list of currently available extensions](extensions-release.md).
 
 ## Prerequisites

+### Required parameters
 
-**Required parameters**
+The following parameters are required when using `az k8s-extension create` to create an extension instance.
 
 | Parameter name | Description |
 |----------------|------------|
 | `--name` | Name of the extension instance |
-| `--extension-type` | The type of extension you want to install on the cluster. For example: Microsoft.AzureMonitor.Containers, microsoft.azuredefender.kubernetes |
-| `--scope` | Scope of installation for the extension - `cluster` or `namespace` |
+| `--extension-type` | The [type of extension](extensions-release.md) you want to install on the cluster. For example: Microsoft.AzureMonitor.Containers, microsoft.azuredefender.kubernetes |
+| `--scope` | [Scope of installation](conceptual-extensions.md#extension-scope) for the extension: `cluster` or `namespace` |
 | `--cluster-name` | Name of the Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes resource on which the extension instance has to be created |
 | `--resource-group` | The resource group containing the Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes resource |
-| `--cluster-type` | The cluster type on which the extension instance has to be created. For most scenarios, use `connectedClusters`, which corresponds to Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes. |
+| `--cluster-type` | The cluster type on which the extension instance has to be created. For most scenarios, use `connectedClusters`, which corresponds to Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters. |

-> When working with [AKS hybrid clusters provisioned from Azure](#aks-hybrid-clusters-provisioned-from-azure-preview) you must set `--cluster-type` to use `provisionedClusters` and also add `--cluster-resource-provider microsoft.hybridcontainerservice` to the command.

+### Optional parameters
 
-**Optional parameters**
+Use one or more of these optional parameters as needed for your scenarios, along with the required parameters.
 
 | Parameter name | Description |
 |--------------|------------|
-| `--auto-upgrade-minor-version` | Boolean property that specifies if the extension minor version will be upgraded automatically or not. Default: `true`.  If this parameter is set to true, you cannot set `version` parameter, as the version will be dynamically updated. If set to `false`, extension will not be auto-upgraded even for patch versions. |
-| `--version` | Version of the extension to be installed (specific version to pin the extension instance to). Must not be supplied if auto-upgrade-minor-version is set to `true`. |
-| `--configuration-settings` | Settings that can be passed into the extension to control its functionality. They are to be passed in as space separated `key=value` pairs after the parameter name. If this parameter is used in the command, then `--configuration-settings-file` can't be used in the same command. |
-| `--configuration-settings-file` | Path to the JSON file having key value pairs to be used for passing in configuration settings to the extension. If this parameter is used in the command, then `--configuration-settings` can't be used in the same command. |
-| `--configuration-protected-settings` | These settings are not retrievable using `GET` API calls or `az k8s-extension show` commands, and are thus used to pass in sensitive settings. They are to be passed in as space separated `key=value` pairs after the parameter name. If this parameter is used in the command, then `--configuration-protected-settings-file` can't be used in the same command. |
-| `--configuration-protected-settings-file` | Path to the JSON file having key value pairs to be used for passing in sensitive settings to the extension. If this parameter is used in the command, then `--configuration-protected-settings` can't be used in the same command. |
-| `--release-namespace` | This parameter indicates the namespace within which the release is to be created. This parameter is only relevant if `scope` parameter is set to `cluster`. |
-| `--release-train` |  Extension  authors can publish versions in different release trains such as `Stable`, `Preview`, etc. If this parameter is not set explicitly, `Stable` is used as default. This parameter can't be used when `autoUpgradeMinorVersion` parameter is set to `false`. |
-| `--target-namespace` | This parameter indicates the namespace within which the release will be created. Permission of the system account created for this extension instance will be restricted to this namespace. This parameter is only relevant if the `scope` parameter is set to `namespace`. |
+| `--auto-upgrade-minor-version` | Boolean property that determines whether the extension minor version will be upgraded automatically or not. The default setting is `true`. If this parameter is set to `true`, you can't set the `version` parameter, as the version will be dynamically updated. If set to `false`, the extension will not be auto-upgraded, even for patch versions. |

+| `--configuration-protected-settings` | Settings that are not retrievable using `GET` API calls or `az k8s-extension show` commands. Typically used to pass in sensitive settings. These are passed in as space-separated `key=value` pairs after the parameter name. If this parameter is used in the command, then `--configuration-protected-settings-file` can't be used in the same command. |
