<p>You can connect to ownCloud with your web browser by pointing
it to the address that you have received from your service
provider. In case you are administering the server yourself,
have a look at ownCloud Administrators Manual.</p>
<p>When you enter the URL, you will receive a page that is similar
to the one depicted below:</p>
<div class="figure">
<a class="reference internal image-reference" href="_images/oc_connect.png"><img alt="_images/oc_connect.png" src="_images/oc_connect.png" /></a>
<p class="caption">The ownCloud login screen</p>
</div>
<p>Login with the user name and password with you have received from
your service provider. If you have set up the server yourself,
log in with the user name which you have created during the
setup process. You can add further users through the settings,
or by hooking up a user backend, such as LDAP.</p>
<div class="section" id="overview">
<h2>Overview<a class="headerlink" href="#overview" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>After clicking the <em class="guilabel">Log in</em> button, you will be redirected
to ownCloud&#8217;s main web interface:</p>
<div class="figure">
<a class="reference internal image-reference" href="_images/oc_ui.png"><img alt="_images/oc_ui.png" src="_images/oc_ui.png" /></a>
<p class="caption">The ownCloud main interface with the essential elements numbered</p>
</div>
<p>The web interface comprises of the following items:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><strong>Navigation bar</strong>: Allows navigation between different parts of ownCloud,
provided by apps. Not all apps depicted in this screen shot are installed
and enabled by default.</li>
<li><strong>Application view</strong>: This is where apps show their content. By default, this
will show the files and directory (file view) of your user on the ownCloud
installation.</li>
<li><strong>Upload/Create button</strong>: This allows you to create new files or upload
existing ones from your device. Note that you can also drop files from
Explorer or Finder onto the ownCloud file view and they will get uploaded to
ownCloud.</li>
<li><strong>Search/Logout</strong>: Search allows you to look for files and
directories. Currently, ownCloud does not provide a full text search, but
this may change in future releases.</li>
<li><strong>Settings</strong>: This button provides access to the settings menu, where you can
change your personal settings, such as the interface language or your
password. You can also retrieve the WebDAV URL (see next chapter) and show
your quota. Administrators will also get access to user management
(<em class="guilabel">Users</em>), the apps settings (<em class="guilabel">Apps</em>) and administrative
settings (<em class="guilabel">Admin</em>) including access to ownCloud&#8217;s log.</li>
