# Setting up Synapse Admin (optional)
The playbook can install and configure [etkecc/synapse-admin](https://github.com/etkecc/synapse-admin) (a [feature-rich](https://github.com/etkecc/synapse-admin#fork-differences) fork of [Awesome-Technologies/synapse-admin](https://github.com/Awesome-Technologies/synapse-admin), community room: [#synapse-admin:etke.cc](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse-admin:etke.cc)) for you.
The playbook can install and configure Synapse Admin for you.
synapse-admin is a web UI tool you can use to **administrate users, rooms, media, etc. on your Matrix server**. It's designed to work with the Synapse homeserver implementation and WON'T work with Dendrite because [Dendrite Admin API](https://element-hq.github.io/dendrite/administration/adminapi) differs from [Synapse Admin API](https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/administration/admin_api/).
Synapse Admin is a web UI tool you can use to **administrate users, rooms, media, etc. on your Matrix homeserver**. This playbook is configured to install [etkecc/synapse-admin](https://github.com/etkecc/synapse-admin), which is a [feature-rich](https://github.com/etkecc/synapse-admin#fork-differences) fork of [Awesome-Technologies/synapse-admin](https://github.com/Awesome-Technologies/synapse-admin).
💡 **Note**: the latest version of synapse-admin is hosted by [etke.cc](https://etke.cc/) at [admin.etke.cc](https://admin.etke.cc/). If you only need this service occasionally and trust giving your admin credentials to a 3rd party Single Page Application, you can consider using it from there and avoiding the (small) overhead of self-hosting.
💡 **Note**: The playbook also supports an alternative management UI in the shape of [Element Admin](./configuring-playbook-element-admin.md). However, it's currently less feature-rich than Synapse Admin and has a dependency on [Matrix Authentication Service](./configuring-playbook-matrix-authentication-service.md).
>[!NOTE]
>
> - Synapse Admin does not work with other homeserver implementations than Synapse due to API's incompatibility.
