# Setting up Appservice Double Puppet (optional)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Appservice Double Puppet is a homeserver appservice through which bridges (and potentially other services) can impersonate any user on the homeserver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is useful for performing [double-puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) via the [appservice method](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html#appservice-method-new). The Appservice Double Puppet service is an implementation of this approach.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Previously, bridges supported performing [double-puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) with the help of the [Shared Secret Auth password provider module](./configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md), but this old and hacky solution has been superseded by this Appservice Double Puppet method.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To enable the Appservice Double Puppet service, adjust your `vars.yml` configuration like this and [re-run the playbook](./installing.md) (`just install-all`):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```yml
|
||
|
|
matrix_appservice_double_puppet_enabled: true
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When enabled, double puppeting will automatically be enabled for all bridges that support double puppeting via the appservice method.
