 # Run extensions using Binary Provisioning

-This is an experimental feature. Breaking changes might occur prior to the feature being made generally available.

 k6 supports [extensions](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/<K6_VERSION>/extensions/) as a way of extending k6 native functionality, and support a wider variety of use cases.
 
-Using k6 with extensions locally requires users to build a [custom k6 binary](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/<K6_VERSION>/extensions/#xk6-makes-custom-binaries) that includes the extension, which can then be used to run a test script. With the Binary Provisioning feature, Grafana Cloud k6 users can run tests with a [limited set of extensions](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/testing/k6/author-run/use-k6-extensions/#supported-extensions-in-grafana-cloud), without having to manually build a k6 binary.
-
-The `archive` and `inspect` commands also support Binary Provisioning to allow creating archives for Grafana Cloud.

-- Running scripts from stdin is not supported.
-- Only files with extensions `.js`, `.ts` or `.tar` can be used. Other extensions will not invoke the Binary Provisioning mechanism.
