# `showExtensions`

The `showExtensions` option displays specification extensions ('x-' fields).
Extensions used by Redoc are ignored.
The value can be boolean or an array of strings with names of extensions to display.
When used as boolean and set to `true`, all specification extensions are shown.

Custom extensions are rendered only in the request details section and in individual field details; they do not appear elsewhere in the UI.

## Options

| Option | Type | Description |
|  --- | --- | --- |
| showExtensions | [string] | boolean | Specify which specification extensions ('x-' fields) to display, or use `true` to show them all.
Default: `false`. |


## Examples

The following example show all specification extensions:

```yaml redocly.yaml
openapi:
  showExtensions: true
```
