# Setting up Nextcloud for a client

There are several non-intuitive steps to get Nextcloud set up and gotchas which clients have to know about.

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".
