The environment variable `DOTNET_ADDITIONAL_DEPS` can be used to add additional dependencies. `dotnet.exe` also contains an optional `--additional-deps` parameter to set this value on application startup.

> The `DOTNET_ADDITIONAL_DEPS` environment variable and the `--additional-deps` command-line option only apply to **framework-dependent applications**.
> These options are **ignored for self-contained applications**.
> For more information, see [Framework-dependent vs self-contained deployments](../deploying/index.md).
