Add an account
</title>
<p>
Adding an account will help link your online accounts with your Ubuntu
desktop. Thus, your email, chat, and other related applications will be set
up for you.
</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Click the icon at the very right of the <gui>menu bar</gui> and select
<gui>System Settings</gui>.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Select <gui>Online Accounts</gui>.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Select an <gui>Account Type</gui> from the right hand windowpane.
</p>
<note style="tip">
<p>
If you want to configure more accounts, you can repeat this process
afterwards.
</p>
</note>
</item>
<item>
<p>
A small web user interface will open where you can enter your online
account credentials. For example, if you are setting up a Google
account, enter your Google username, password and sign in.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
If you entered your credentials correctly, you will be prompted to
accept the terms. Select <gui>Accept</gui> to continue.
Once accepted, Ubuntu needs permission to access your account. To allow
access, click on the <gui>Grant Access</gui> button. When prompted,
enter the current users password.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Now you can select the applications you want linked to your online
account. For example, if you want to use an online account for chat,
but do not want the calendar, turn the <gui>calendar</gui> option off.
</p>
</item>
</steps>
<p>
After you have added the accounts, each application you have selected will
automatically use those credentials when you log into your account.
</p>
<note style="tip">
<p>
For security reasons, Ubuntu will not store your password on your
computer. Instead, it stores a token that is provided by the online
service. If you want to fully revoke the link between your desktop and the
online service, <link xref="accounts-remove">remove</link> it.
