# Connect Bluesky

> Connect Bluesky with a dedicated app password.

Bluesky does not use the same OAuth popup flow as most social platforms in daoco. You connect with a Bluesky app password.

## Connect Bluesky

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an app password">
    In Bluesky, open **Settings** -> **App passwords** and create a dedicated app password for daoco. Do not use your main Bluesky password.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Connections">
    In daoco, open **Connections**, choose **Add Account**, and select **Bluesky**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter Bluesky credentials">
    Paste your handle or DID and the app password. Add a custom service URL only if you use a self-hosted PDS.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect and confirm">
    Choose **Connect** and confirm the Bluesky handle appears in the connected accounts list.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Notes

* daoco does not store the app password itself. It stores the session tokens Bluesky returns.
* If the app password is revoked in Bluesky, reconnect the account with a new app password.
