# Data

User Data, Global Data, Guild Data, Channel Data, even more.

I'll take user data as an example for this.

### What is user data & how does it work?

User data is a way of storing data bound to somebody. (A discord user specifically)

Data can have:&#x20;

* A Name: How you'll be able to select the value
* A Value: Whatever you wish

User Data is global (meaning it can be accessed from anywhere) whilst Member Data is per-guild (meaning it can be accessed from the server the member is in)

***

Default Value

* The value that will be returned if the data does not exist

Data Name

* The name of the data

What you use as the data name, you'll have to later remember to put inside the "Get User Data" Data Name input.
