Getting Your Data Into LiveRamp
After you've finalized your file for uploading, there are several methods you can use to get your data into LiveRamp:
Upload your data via LiveRamp's SFTP
Upload your data via your SFTP
Upload your data via Connect (only for files 500MB and smaller)
Allow LiveRamp to retrieve your data from an AWS (Amazon Web Services) S3 cloud storage bucket, in one of the following methods:
Authorizing LiveRamp’s user
Creating an IAM (Identity and Access Management) user to share with LiveRamp
Allow LiveRamp to retrieve your data from a GCS (Google Cloud Storage) bucket
Tip
If you have more than one audience, make sure to determine the audience to upload to.
An alternative method to get data into LiveRamp is our Client Side Tag, a tag that can be placed on any cookieable website, or in any email or online advertisement. It is used to log impressions, group them into segments, and automatically import those segments into LiveRamp for processing. For more information, see Implementing LiveRamp’s Client-Side Tag.

Next Steps
Within about 20 minutes after uploading, you can check the status of your uploaded files on the Files page.
Once your data has been ingested (usually within 1-3 days), you can manage it in Connect and distribute it to your desired destinations.
