+## Integrations
 
+The basic functionality requires only one database table: [User table](#User table).
 
+For all options to work three tables are required:
+ - [User table](#User table),
+ - [Group table](#Group table),
+ - [User group table](#User group table).
 
+If you already have an existing database you can always create database views which fits this model,
+but be aware that some functionalities requires data changes (update queries).

-## Integrations
+If you don't have any database model yet you can use below tables (MySQL):
+```
+CREATE TABLE sql_users
+(
+  id                INT         AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
+  username          VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL,
+  display_name      TEXT        NULL,
+  email             TEXT        NULL,
+  home              TEXT        NULL,
+  password          TEXT        NOT NULL,
+  can_change_avatar BOOLEAN     NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE,
+  CONSTRAINT users_username_uindex UNIQUE (username)
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE sql_group
+(
+  id           INT         AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
+  name         VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL,
+  display_name TEXT        NULL,
+  admin        BOOLEAN     NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE,
+  CONSTRAINT group_name_uindex UNIQUE (name)

+

+  INDEX user_group_group_name_index (group_name),
+  INDEX user_group_username_index (username)

+```
 
 ### WordPress
 Thanks to this app, Nextcloud can easily integrate with Wordpress.
