# Uploading data
You can upload data in CSV format to Metabase and start asking questions about it. This feature is best suited for ad hoc analysis of spreadsheet data. If you have a lot of data, or will need to update or add to that data regularly, we recommend setting up a way to load that data into a database directly, then connecting Metabase to that database.
Once you've [enabled uploads](#enabling-uploads), you can [upload files](../exploration-and-organization/collections.md#uploading-data) in CSV format to a collection in Metabase.
