There are several non-intuitive steps to get Nextcloud set up and gotchas which clients have to know about.
It is not possible to add accounts or change passwords in May First's Nextcloud instance, [share.mayfirst.org](https://share.mayfirst.org/). This must be done in May First's control panel.
1. Go to [Circles](https://share.mayfirst.org/apps/circles/)
2. Type a no-spaces version of the clients name into the "Create a new circle" box at the top left, under the Nextcloud logo.
3. For *Select a circle type* choose "Create a new personal circle".
## Rationale
We create an organizaton account so that it's clear people are being invited to organization resources and there is no problem if an individual leaves an organization.
Because the account will have the same password for Nextcloud and for everything else in May First, we create an account through the May First control panel that will be used only for Nextcloud. This way credentials used, even rarely, for logging into Nextcloud are not also used to control web hosting, e-mail, and other
