How do I use marketplace visualizations?

How can I use the custom visualizations from the Looker Marketplace?

For example, I would like to use the Viz Histogram extension, so far I've added the following line to `manifest.ikml`:

remote_dependency: viz_histogram {
  url: "https://github.com/looker-open-source/viz-histogram-marketplace.git"
  ref: "master"
}

and hit "Update Dependencies", I can see the imported project but I am not able to use the histogram in my explores. What additional steps do I need to take to be able to use the histogram in my project?

Hi @matthh9797jetty

did you try installing the custom visualization from the marketplace directly?

That did the trick, thank you @MA!
