# Connect Disroot

<PlanNote plan="basic" />

Your Disroot calendars live in **Disroot Cloud** (Nextcloud). You connect them over **CalDAV** — with your **Disroot username** and ideally an **app password**. After that everything runs automatically, and sync picks up changes **every 5 minutes**.

:::caution[The most common pitfall]
Your login is your **username without `@disroot.org`** — so `name`, not `name@disroot.org`. If you enter the full address anyway, Kalender Sync shortens it automatically.
:::

## 1. Create an app password in Disroot Cloud

1. Sign in to [Disroot Cloud](https://cloud.disroot.org/).
2. Open **Settings → Security** and scroll to **Devices & sessions**.
3. Enter a name, e.g. "Kalender Sync", and click **Create new app password**.
4. Copy the password shown — it is displayed only once.

If you have **two-factor authentication** turned on, the app password is **required**. Without 2FA your regular Disroot password works too, but the app password is safer: you can revoke it later without changing your Disroot password.

## 2. Connect in Kalender Sync

1. In the dashboard, **"Connect calendar"** → **"Disroot"**.
2. Enter your **Disroot username** (without `@disroot.org`).
3. Enter the **app password** and click **"Test & Connect"** — Kalender Sync checks the connection right away.

You don't need to enter the server address (`cloud.disroot.org`) — Kalender Sync knows it and finds your calendars automatically.

:::note[Other Nextcloud servers]
This connection works for Disroot only. Your own Nextcloud, or Nextcloud at another provider, can't be connected at the moment.

## If "Sign-in failed" appears

- Does signing in to [Disroot Cloud](https://cloud.disroot.org/) work with the same details? If not, the username or password is wrong.
- Two-factor authentication on? Then only an **app password** works, not your regular password.
- Did you delete the app password in Disroot Cloud or change your password? Then reconnect with a new app password.

Still stuck? Write to us at [support@kalender-sync.de](mailto:support@kalender-sync.de) — the Disroot connection is still new, and every bit of feedback helps.

## Stop access

In Kalender Sync: [Remove a calendar](https://docs.kalender-sync.de/en/connect-calendar/disconnect/). You can also delete the app password in Disroot Cloud under **Settings → Security → Devices & sessions** — that ends access immediately.
