# Data Source Presets

> Selecting which data sources to include in answers

Data source presets allow you to configure specific data sources for Unblocked to reference when answering questions. This can be useful when you don't want Unblocked to reference every connected data source.

For instance, if you are an engineer, you may want to receive answers only using data from the `#engineering` and `#general` Slack channels, and not include any data from the `#sales` channel, or from any Notion documents.

## Create a Data Source Preset

To create a new data source preset, navigate to the **Settings** section of the [Unblocked web app](/using-unblocked/on-the-web). Under **Shared Presets**, select **Create Preset**.

Every data source connected by your team is displayed in the **Data Sources** list. Simply click each individual row to include or exclude the data source from the preset.

By default, all connected documents will be included with each selected data source. To specify particular documents to include with each data source, click the **Configure** button.

Click **Save** to save the preset.

  your messaging platform](/using-unblocked/in-messaging-platforms), and [in the Mac
