];|name=/etc/nixos/configuration.nix|lang=nix}}

=== Online Account Management ===

Cinnamon uses [https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=25.11&query=gnome-online-accounts-gtk&show=gnome-online-accounts-gtk gnome-online-accounts-gtk] to manage online account connection with the rest of the desktop environment. However, merely activating the Cinnamon desktopManager service isn't enough to make this feature work. You must also activate the [https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=25.11&query=gnome+online+accounts&show=services.gnome.gnome-online-accounts.enable gnome-online-accounts] service, like so.<syntaxhighlight lang="nix">

services.gnome.gnome-online-accounts.enable = true;

</syntaxhighlight>
