# Dataset resources

Use the resources below to wrap data from any source, allowing you to log your dataset's columnar data and artifacts in Vectice.

For instructions on using these resources, refer to the [Vectice API Reference ](https://api-docs.vectice.com/)guide's Resources section.

{% hint style="info" %}
Vectice stores the artifacts of your datasets, **not** your actual datasets.
{% endhint %}

<table><thead><tr><th width="326">Resources</th><th width="482">Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>Resource()</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and artifacts from your storage location. It can be extended for any data source. (example: <strong>Redshift, RDS, etc.</strong>)</td></tr><tr><td><code>FileResource(...)</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and artifacts from a <strong>local file</strong>.</td></tr><tr><td><code>GCSResource(...)</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and artifacts from your <strong>Google Cloud Storage (GCS)</strong> source.</td></tr><tr><td><code>S3Resource(...)</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and its artifacts from your <strong>AWS</strong> <strong>S3</strong> source.</td></tr><tr><td><code>BigQueryResource(...)</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and artifacts from your <strong>BigQuery</strong> source.</td></tr><tr><td><code>DatabricksTableResource(...)</code></td><td>Wrap your dataset's columnar data and artifacts from your <strong>Databricks</strong> source.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Resource usage examples

Below we highlight how you can use the available Resources to wrap your dataset's columnar and artifacts to later [log your dataset](/25.4/log-and-manage-assets-with-vectice-api/log-assets-to-vectice/log-datasets.md) to Vectice.

### A Custom Data Source

To wrap data from a custom data source, create a custom resource inherited from the base `Resource` class and implement your own `_build_metadata()` and `_fetch_data()` methods.

View our guide [How to add a custom data source](/25.4/log-and-manage-assets-with-vectice-api/log-assets-to-vectice/log-a-custom-data-source.md) for more information and examples.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.vectice.com/25.4/glossary/concepts/datasets/dataset-resources.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
