# Overview

Connect to your favorite data storage platforms for effortless batch processing of your files. We are constantly adding
new data connectors and if you don’t see your favorite platform let us know in our community Slack.

When ingesting data from a storage via a source connector, you typically store the resulting `*.json` files in a
specified output directory.

To "rehydrate" elements in JSON form into in-memory objects to further use in your application, use `elements_from_json`:

```python  theme={null}
from unstructured.staging.base import elements_from_json

elements = elements_from_json(filename=path_to_json_file)
```
