+Data source locations are **public URLs or files**, which do not require authentication. 
+
+If you need authentication for your data source, consider the following methods to get that data into QnA Maker:
+
+* [Download file manually](#download-file-from-authenticated-data-source-location) and import into QnA Maker
+* Import file for authenticated [Sharepoint location](#import-file-from-authenticated-sharepoint) 
+
+### Download file from authenticated data source location
+
+If you have an authenticated file (not on an authenticated Sharepoint location) or URL, an alternative option is to download the file from the authenticated site to your local computer, then add the file from your local computer to the knowledge base.
