# Adding Data to a Project

Once you have a DNAnexus project set up, you can add data to the project in the user interface (UI), or through the command line. 

## Adding Data to a Project in the UI

There are several options to add data into a project space. These can be found in the "Add" drop down menu on the right hand side of the Project headings, as seen below:

* The first option is **Upload Data.** This option allows you to upload data from the computer that you are running the user interface on. You can select or drop files into the upload box, and the files will upload.&#x20;
* The second option is **Copy Data From Project.** This option allows you to copy data from a project that is already existing on the DNAnexus platform.&#x20;
* The third option is **Add Data From Server.** This options allows you to import using a URL.&#x20;
* The fourth option **Import From AWS S3**. This option allows you to import data from an S3 bucket hosted on AWS.  Details on how to run this are included in the [App Documentation](https://platform.dnanexus.com/panx/tool/app/app-J2fqB0Q06XZkbX0bZqY0FV5b).&#x20;
