# Data In all Crunchs, the crunchers can access our datasets as follow: ## Regular competitions ### The setup command The easiest way is to use the command provided in the `Submit` tab of each competition. This command ensures that you have the latest data and keeps it updated in the event of continuous competitions. ### Manual download If you prefer not to use the CLI, you can access the file via the `Resources` then `Datasets` tab. Those links only work as long as you have accepted the rules. This page allows you to download files after a competition has ended. ### Load the data Most competition data can be loaded using the `crunch_tools.load_data()` function. However, some data is too complex or large to be loaded automatically. If this is the case, refer to the Quickstarter, which provides a working example you can use as a base. The shape of the data is always described in the competition overview. Feel free to ask questions on the [Discord server](https://discord.com/invite/veAtzsYn3M) or the [forum](https://forum.crunchdao.com/). ## Real-time competitions Some competitions do not provide data directly via the platform, but instead use a dedicated mechanism. Always read the competition's overview to learn how to do so. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
