# File
For context on getting started with ingestion, check out our [metadata ingestion guide](../README.md).
## Setup
Works with `acryl-datahub` out of the box.
## Capabilities
This plugin pulls metadata from a previously generated file. The [file sink](../sink_docs/file.md)
can produce such files, and a number of samples are included in the
[examples/mce_files](../examples/mce_files) directory.
## Quickstart recipe
Check out the following recipe to get started with ingestion! See [below](#config-details) for full configuration options.
For general pointers on writing and running a recipe, see our [main recipe guide](../README.md#recipes).
```yml
source:
type: file
config:
# Coordinates
filename: ./path/to/mce/file.json
sink:
# sink configs
```
## Config details
Note that a `.` is used to denote nested fields in the YAML recipe.
| Field | Required | Default | Description |
| ---------- | -------- | ------- | ----------------------- |
| `filename` | ✅ | | Path to file to ingest. |
## Compatibility
Coming soon!
