added directly to your configured cluster. Those applications are needed for
[Review Apps](../../../ci/review_apps/index.md) and [deployments](../../../ci/environments.md).
+NOTE: **Note:**
+The applications will be installed in a dedicated namespace called
+`gitlab-managed-apps`. In case you have added an existing Kubernetes cluster
+with Tiller already installed, you should be careful as GitLab cannot
+detect it. By installing it via the applications will result into having it
