# Add data using a URL

By uploading data via a URL, you are both adding the dataset to your Use Case and [registering it in the Data Registry](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/api/reference/sdk/data-registry.html). You can use a local, HTTP, HTTPS, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, or S3 (URL must use HTTP) URL to import your data. The following is an example URL: `https://s3.amazonaws.com/datarobot_public_datasets/10k_diabetes.csv`.

Before uploading a file, review DataRobot's [dataset requirements](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/reference/data-ref/file-types.html) for accepted file formats and size guidelines. See the associated [considerations](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/workbench/nxt-workbench/dataprep/data-faq/index.html#feature-considerations) for important additional information.

To upload data using a URL:

1. From theData assetstile, clickAdd data.
2. In theBrowse datamodal, clickUpload from URL.
3. Enter the URL in the field and clickAdd.
4. DataRobot begins registering the dataset in the Data Registry. You can continue adding data, or you can clickAdd to Use Caseto add the dataset to your Use Case and exit theBrowse datamodal. TheData assetstile displays the source, row count, feature count, and size of the dataset.
