How to connect to a dapp

The easiest way to connect to a dapp is to let the dapp prompt you to connect with MetaMask.

1. Oftentimes, dapps will have a ‘Connect’ button—or something with similar wording—allowing you to connect your MetaMask with that dapp. Click 'Connect' and select MetaMask when prompted.

2. You will notice a prompt in MetaMask asking if you would like to connect MetaMask to the dapp. This prompt will display the account that the dapp is requesting to connect to. By clicking 'Edit accounts' you can select which account(s) you would like to connect to the dapp.

3. Clicking on the 'Permissions' tab provides an overview of the accounts and enabled networks. Selecting 'Edit' next to these will allow you to fine-tune the selected accounts and networks.

The dapp will be able to see the addresses of the selected accounts and can suggest transactions for those specific accounts (e.g., a swap or trade if you have initiated one). You will still have to manually approve these transactions, of course. Your enabled networks will be automatically selected, but you can manually select which networks do and do not have permissions by tapping on the network. A dapp that uses multiple networks will be able to seamlessly switch between the enabled networks without needing to prompt you to switch manually.

If everything looks good, click ‘Connect’ to connect the selected accounts and networks with the dapp. You’re now set!

In the future, if the dapp wishes to connect to another account or network for which you have not yet granted permission, it can prompt you to grant these additional permissions. You can modify the granted permissions for the selected accounts and networks anytime.
