Attaching a Nextcloud account to Nautilus via WebDAV in Ubuntu 16.04

  1. Go to your Nextcloud account security settings using a browser. Create a new app password.
  2. Open Nautilus and select Connect to Server from the left sidebar.
  3. Enter 
    davs://YOUR-DOMAIN.TLD/PATH/remote.php/dav/files/YOUR-USERNAME/

    substituting YOUR-DOMAIN.TLD/PATH and YOUR-USERNAME as needed. If your server is not using https, substitute davs:// with dav://. (Also, shame on you.)

  4. Enter your username and app password (created at step 1, above) when prompted.
