Hi TaniaJanek,
You started from a great article: Set up iCloud on your Mac
For help with access your desktop and documents with iCloud check out the steps below found in the article here: Add your Desktop and Documents files to iCloud Drive
"Turn on Desktop and Documents
Turn on Desktop and Documents on every Mac that you want to use with iCloud Drive.
- From your Mac, choose Apple menu  > System Settings. In macOS Monterey or earlier, choose Apple menu  > System Preferences.
- Click Apple ID, then click iCloud.
- Make sure that iCloud Drive is turned on.
- Next to iCloud Drive, click Options.
- Choose Desktop & Documents Folders.
6. Click Done.
If you want to store your files in iCloud Drive and another cloud storage service, you can keep copies of your files in both, but you can't keep folders from a third-party cloud service in iCloud Drive. You can keep your other cloud service folders in a different place on your Mac, like the home folder."
You can also find helpful information in the articles below.

Hope the information helps.
Cheers.
