## Add Dataset

- This step assumes that you have already created an `app` instance by either using `App`, `OpenSourceApp` or `CustomApp`. We are calling our app instance as `naval_chat_bot` 🤖

- Now use `.add()` function to add any dataset.

```python
# naval_chat_bot = App() or
# naval_chat_bot = OpenSourceApp()

# Embed Online Resources
naval_chat_bot.add("youtube_video", "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qHkcs3kG44")
naval_chat_bot.add("pdf_file", "https://navalmanack.s3.amazonaws.com/Eric-Jorgenson_The-Almanack-of-Naval-Ravikant_Final.pdf")
naval_chat_bot.add("web_page", "https://nav.al/feedback")
naval_chat_bot.add("web_page", "https://nav.al/agi")

# Embed Local Resources
naval_chat_bot.add_local("qna_pair", ("Who is Naval Ravikant?", "Naval Ravikant is an Indian-American entrepreneur and investor."))
```

The possible formats to add data can be found on the [Supported Data Formats](/advanced/data_types) page.
