+You can connect to your MongoDB deployment by providing a
+**connection URI**, also called a *connection string*, which
+tells {+odm+} how to connect to a MongoDB deployment and behave while
+connected.
+
+The connection string includes the hostname or IP address and
+port of your deployment, the authentication mechanism, user credentials
+when applicable, and connection options.
+
+To learn about connecting to an instance or deployment not hosted on
+Atlas, see :manual:`Connection Strings </reference/connection-string/>`
+in the {+server-manual+}.
+
+.. procedure::
+   :style: connected
+
+   .. step:: Find your MongoDB Atlas connection string
+
+      To retrieve your connection string for the deployment that
+      you created in the previous step, log in to your Atlas account.
+      Then, navigate to the :guilabel:`Database` section and click the
+      :guilabel:`Connect` button for your new deployment.
+
+      .. figure:: /includes/figures/atlas_connection_select_cluster.png
+         :alt: The connect button in the clusters section of the Atlas UI
+
+      Proceed to the :guilabel:`Connect your application` section. Select
+      **{+language+}** from the :guilabel:`Driver` selection menu and
+      the most recent {+ruby-driver+} version from the
+      :guilabel:`Version` selection menu.
+
+      Deselect the :guilabel:`View full code sample` option to view only
+      the connection string.
+
+   .. step:: Copy your connection string
+
+      Click the button on the right of the connection string to copy it
+      to your clipboard.
+
+   .. step:: Update the placeholders
+
+      Paste the connection string into a file in your preferred text editor
+      and replace the ``<username>`` and ``<password>`` placeholders with
+      your database user's username and password.
+
+      Save this file to a safe location for use in the next step.
+
+After completing these steps, you have a connection string that
+contains your database username and password.
