You can add a Registry so that you can pull images to add to your own set of running Docker containers.

A registry is a public or private repository of Docker images used for storing and delivering applications.

Litmus Edge supports Docker Registry v2.

The following registries are available:

- AWS ECR
- Azure Container
- Docker
- GCR Docker

Each registry uses different configuration information.

To enable retrieval of applications from containers, you first must give Litmus Edge access to the repository.

**Note**: If you add a registry for Azure in Docker configuration with a username/password, the format is `https://<your-registry-name>.azurecr.io/v2/`.&#x20;
