How to install genymotion plugin in android studio?

I installed Android Studio 4.1 and Genymotion 3.1.2 with VirtualBox 6.0.4.
I searched Genymotion Plugin in Android Studio but it wasn't there. I tried adding by downloading jar file and then Install Plugin from disk but that didn't worked either.
In Genymotion Website it says click on Browse Repositories and then install plugin but I can't find Browse Repositories option either.

My question is how can I install Genymotion ? and Why isn't genymotion plugin there in my android studio ?

I have seen similar questions in stack overflow but none of them worked for me and
Google search gives results about what to do if genymotion device or icon doesn't appear after installing genymotion plugin.

It is also possible to install the plugin manually with https://dl.genymotion.com/plugins/idea/1.0.7/genymotion-idea-plugin-20151209.jar . The plugin offers some extra options, like creating, starting or shutting down a device without having to use Genymotion user interface.

It seems plugin is not required anymore. I tried to find genymotion in Android Studio the same way. But finally found that Genymotion AVD is already in the list of available devices. I didn't do any specific installation of the plugin.

You need to create Device in Genymotion first to make it visible in Android Studio.

Android Studio 4.1, Genymotion 3.1.2, VirtualBox 6.1.14
