# Add an account

Adding an account will help link your online accounts with your GNOME desktop. Thus, your email program, chat program, and other related applications will be set up for you.

Click the + button in the lower-left portion of the window.

Click the Account Type menu and select one.

If you have more than one account type, you can add the other accounts at a later time.

Click Add…

A small website window will open where you can enter your online account credentials. For example, if you are setting up a Google account, enter your Google username and password.

If you've entered your credentials correctly, you will be prompted to allow GNOME access to your online account. Select Grant Access to continue.

Select the applications that you want linked to your online account. For example, if you want to use an online account for chat, but do not want to use an online account for your calendar, turn the calendar option off.

After you have added the accounts, each application that you have selected will automatically use those credentials when you start them.

For security reasons, GNOME 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, remove it.
