# What does it do? {#introduction}

This extension provides the option to connect person profils from [EXT_academic_persons](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/academic_persons) to TYPO3 frontend users.

In addition this extension provides plugins to choose and edit an assigned profile. Therefore a frontend user with
an assigned person profile has to be logged in.
