How do I establish a WebDAV connection in Gnome 3?

In Nautilus from Gnome 3, the Connect to Server dialog is missing the Type field.

How can I establish a WebDAV connection?

Screenshot of the dialog

In the Server Address field type the following:

davs://[email protected]/path

The user@ and path parts are of course optional, so, if needed, you can just type:

davs://host.name/

If you need, you may provide a password as well:

davs://user:[email protected]/path

If someone is getting the error "SSL Handshake Failed", then exclude the "s" from davs since we are not using SSL i.e.

dav://user@hostname:port/path

This took me a while to figure out so hopefully this helps some people out there :).
