+**Loading a WCS Layer**
+
+To be able to load a WCS Layer, first create a connection to the WCS server:
+
+#. Open the :guilabel:`Data Source Manager` dialog by pressing the
+   |dataSourceManager| :sup:`Open Data Source Manager` button
+#. Enable the |addWcsLayer| :guilabel:`WCS` tab
+#. Click on :guilabel:`New...` to open the :guilabel:`Create a New WCS
+   Connection` dialog

+
+   * :guilabel:`Name`: A name for the connection. This name will be used in
+     the Server Connections drop-down box so that you can distinguish it from
+     other WCS servers.
+   * :guilabel:`URL`: URL of the server providing the data. This must be a
+     resolvable host name -- the same format as you would use to open a telnet
+     connection or ping a host, i.e. the base URL only.
+     For example, you shouldn't have fragments such as ``request=GetCapabilities``
+     or ``version=1.0.0`` in your URL.
+   * :guilabel:`Authentication` (optional): using a :ref:`stored configuration
+     <authentication_workflow>` or a basic authentication with
+     :guilabel:`Username` and :guilabel:`Password`.

+     if checked, use given URI from the :guilabel:`URL` field above.
+   * |unchecked| :guilabel:`Ignore reported layer extents`: because the extent
+     reported by raster layers may be smaller than the actual area which can
+     be rendered (notably for WMS servers with symbology which takes more space
+     than the data extent), check this option to avoid cropping raster layers
+     to their reported extents, resulting in truncated symbols on the borders
+     of these layers.

+#. Press :guilabel:`OK` to create the connection.
+
+Note that any proxy settings you may have set in your preferences are also recognized.
+Also note that it is possible to :guilabel:`Load` the connection parameters
+from a :file:`.XML` file or :guilabel:`Save` them to a :file:`.XML` file. 
+
+Now we are ready to load WFS layers from the above connection.
