Try it with the demo servers
You can try every Immich and Nextcloud source without running your own server. Public demo servers hold a small library of photos, and the examples in these docs and the plugin's showcase notes (Create showcase notes command) point at them.
The demo servers are read-only: the credentials below can view photos but cannot change anything. They are run by the plugin's author, so your requests (and your IP address) reach that server. Don't rely on them for anything beyond trying the plugin; they may change or go away.

Connections (for immich and nextcloud sources)
The quickest way to get them: run the Create showcase notes command and choose Add connections. The plugin adds both connections to your settings (it never changes an existing connection with the same key) and writes example notes that use them.
To add them by hand instead, use Settings → Gallery View → Providers (see Settings). Use exactly these keys, because the docs examples and showcase notes refer to them. Remove the connections there when you are done trying the plugin.
