# Data Warehouse

There are three alternative ways to connect data from your data warehouse: 

* **AI:** This is the preferred option and is often the simplest. Use this option when you would like the AI to assist in finding the correct data or doing light transformations of the data prior to working with it in your spreadsheet. See [Getting Data Using AI](/using-arcwise-ai-analyst/getting-data-using-ai.md) for using this option.
* **Data Catalog:** Use this option if you want to quickly connect a known table.
* **Connect Data:** Use this option to manually explore and search for tables.

{% hint style="info" %}
If your data is large the data in the sheet will be truncated to 100 rows. You can still work with this data, however! See [Working With Large Data](/using-arcwise-in-sheets/working-with-large-data.md).
