Once you'll add the extension next you'll see option:
Click “Add menu item”.
Label: Enter a label (e.g., “Saved Carts”).
Link: Select Apps > Multi-Cart Page Extension.
Click Save Menu.
Alternatively, there is another way of doing this as well Go to the admin panel, go to Content > Menus > Customer Account Main Menu. Enter a label (e.g., “Saved Carts”) and Link: Select Apps > Multi-Cart Page Extension.
