# Connect via WebDAV to your Account

What is WebDAV?

WebDAV allows you to access and manage files on a server as if they were on your local device. You can upload, download, create, move, delete files and folders, and collaborate by managing versions and locking files.

There is a very extensive guide on the topic of WebDAV and Nextcloud which can be found [here](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/user_manual/files/access_webdav.html).

To connect to your NextCloud via WebDAV, first create an "App Password" (e.g., named "WebDAV") by following [this](https://wiki.masali.cloud/books/instructions-for-individual-apps-U91/page/create-a-app-password) guide. Then, use this URL in your file manager or app:

```
https://hub.masali.cloud/remote.php/dav/files/YOUR-USER-NAME-HERE/
```

<p class="callout success">Do not forget to insert your username you got when creating an "App Password" in place of "YOUR-USER-NAME-HERE"!</p>
