# Installing Vim Connect on Microsoft Edge

## Step-by-step instructions for installing Vim Connect on Microsoft Edge.

---

### **Getting Started with Vim Connect**

**Vim Connect** integrates directly into your Microsoft Edge browser to enhance your EHR experience. This guide walks you through installing Vim Connect on Microsoft Edge, verifying setup, and confirming you're ready to begin using Vim inside your EHR.

### **Step 1: Download the Vim Microsoft Edge Extension**

- Open Microsoft Edge and go to [**vim.health/web**](https://vim.health/web)
- You’ll be redirected to the Chrome Web Store.
- Click **“Get”** and confirm the installation when prompted.

💡 If the extension doesn’t install, check your Microsoft Edge settings to **ensure browser extensions are allowed**.

### **Step 2: Pin the Extension![Screenshot 2025-10-08 at 10.08.34 AM](https://knowledgebase.getvim.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/Screenshot%202025-10-08%20at%2010.08.34%20AM.png?width=300&height=159&name=Screenshot%202025-10-08%20at%2010.08.34%20AM.png)**

- Click the **Extensions icon** (puzzle piece) in the top-right corner of Microsoft Edge
- Find **Vim Connect** in the list
- Click the **pin icon** to keep it visible in your toolbar for easy access

💡 Pinning the extension ensures the Vim icon is always visible — it will turn **blue when patient-specific insights** are available.

### **Step 3: Enter Your Organization Key**

- Click the **Vim heart icon** in your Microsoft Edge toolbar
- Click the **pencil icon** to open extension settings
- In a separate tab, log into Vim Console and go to the **Organization** tab 
    - Copy your **Organization Key.**
    - If you don’t have access, contact your Vim Admin or email **support@getvim.com**
- Return to the Vim extension, paste in the key, and click the **checkmark** to save.

💡 Your **Organization Key** links the extension to your practice. It only needs to be entered once per device.

### Step 4: Restart Microsoft Edge & Log Into Your EHR

- Close all Microsoft Edge windows and relaunch the browser
- ![grey heart](https://knowledgebase.getvim.com/hs-fs/hubfs/grey%20heart.png?width=97&height=97&name=grey%20heart.png)Log in to your EHR as you normally would
- You should now see a **grey Vim heart** in the top-right corner of your EHR interface.

![grey to blue logo-1](https://knowledgebase.getvim.com/hs-fs/hubfs/grey%20to%20blue%20logo-1.png?width=132&height=58&name=grey%20to%20blue%20logo-1.png)💡 The icon will remain **grey until actionable patient insights are available** — then it will pulse and turn blue.

### **After Installation: Activate Vim Connect**

- The first time you log in to your EHR, you’ll be prompted to complete a one-time Vim login
- Once complete, you’ll see a confirmation message that your EHR is now connected to Vim Connect
- The Vim heart icon will now appear in your EHR and can be repositioned using the directional arrows
- When patient-relevant data is available, the icon will pulse and turn blue, indicating actionable insights
- Click the blue Vim icon to review the information and take action directly within your workflow.
