This is a Quick Start Guide for our QWC2 Hosting.
Note that each item is covered in detail in subsequent sections of this documentation.
1. Install the QGIS Plugin.

3. Enter Server Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enter your credentials
1. In the QWC2 plugin, give your server a name
2. Enter your hostname (e.g. geo.webgis1.com)
3. Enter your email and password
4. Click Save
.. note::
Close the plugin and open it again if the Server is not visible immediately.
4. Create Tenant
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While not required, it is strongly recommended to create at least one new Tenant.
Doing so will leave the Default Tenant empty so subsequent Tenants will start cleanly.
Click Tenant on the left menu, give your Tenant and name and click Create

You should see a success message like below

.. note::
If you have created mutliple Tenants, be sure to connect as the correct Tenant
4. Go to Maps > Add New
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Give your map a name and description and select the QGIS Project from the dropdown

There are a large number of features and options, but for now, just go scroll down to Security and select the existing User Group
