## How Channels Are Connected

Volta supports two connection methods. The method available depends on the platform.

### OAuth (most platforms)

Most platforms use OAuth, which means Volta handles the secure authentication handshake for you.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Add Channel">
    Navigate to **Channels** in the sidebar and click **Add Channel**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your platform">
    Select the platform you want to connect from the list.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authenticate">
    Click **Sign in with \[Platform]**. You'll be redirected to that platform to authorize Volta. After approving, you're returned to Volta with the channel connected.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  For OAuth platforms, you don't need to set up anything in your `.env` file — you can enter OAuth app credentials directly in the **Add Channel** popup if they aren't already configured on your instance.
</Note>

### Credential Paste (direct entry)

Some platforms don't use a central OAuth server — or they offer simpler token-based access. For these, you enter your credentials directly into the Add Channel form. No app registration or server configuration is required.

Platforms using direct credential entry include:

| Platform  | What you enter                           |
| --------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Bluesky   | Service URL + handle + app password      |
| Nostr     | Private key (HEX format)                 |
| WordPress | Domain + username + application password |
| Medium    | Integration token                        |
| Dev.to    | API key                                  |
| Hashnode  | Personal access token                    |
| Ghost     | Domain + Admin API key                   |
| Notion    | Internal integration token               |
| Bear Blog | URL + API token                          |
| Mataroa   | API key                                  |
| Write.as  | Username + password                      |
| Lemmy     | Instance URL + username + password       |
| Rumble    | Channel URL + API key                    |

<Tip>
  Credential-paste platforms are often the quickest to connect — there's no OAuth app registration involved. Just generate a token from the platform's settings page and paste it into Volta.
