# Data Files

Data files represent any kind of additional data that you may need to have deployed on the server for it to be able to execute a given rule. Examples of data files are CSV files detailing ISO country codes and geo location databases.

You can upload these data files to the console server and from there deploy them out to any Composable Agentic Platform server on your network in a single operation.

As a rule, those files will be installed into the Composable Agentic Platform HOME folder.

Most rules will register a listener to detect if a data file they depend on has been changed. This means that a changed data file will be picked up by a rule set automatically without the need for a restart. This detection typically happens within 30 seconds of deployment.
