# Add an Ingress using a manifest

There are two ways to add a new ingress: [manually by using a form](https://docs.portainer.io/sts/user/kubernetes/networking/ingresses/add) or automatically by using a manifest. This article explains how to add an ingress using a manifest.

{% hint style="info" %}
Manifests aren't just for Ingresses - you can also deploy namespaces, ConfigMaps, secrets and volumes using a manifest.
{% endhint %}

From the menu expand **Networking**, select **Ingresses,** click **Create from code** and select **Manifest** from the drop down menu.
