# Add remote content from a URL

Use the [remote content](/docs/realm/reunite/project/remote-content/remote-content) feature to include content from external sources in your project.
This approach is useful for including a single, publicly-available file as part of your published project.

## Add a remote URL source

To add content from a remote file:

1. In the file tree, select the folder (or click on the empty space to select the root directory) to which you want to add the remote content folder.
2. Select **+ > New remote file > Add URL link**.
3. Enter a name for the new remote content folder and press **Enter** or **Return** key.
4. Enter the URL of a publicly-available file to include in the project.
5. Select a sync frequency, between 15 minutes and 12 hours.
Files that update infrequently can be synced less often.
6. (Optional) Click the [**Auto-sync**](/docs/realm/reunite/project/remote-content/remote-content#auto-sync-and-auto-merge) or [**Auto-merge**](/docs/realm/reunite/project/remote-content/remote-content#auto-sync-and-auto-merge) toggles to turn off either option.
7. Click **Add remote**.
This action opens a pull request in Redocly automatically.
After refreshing your browser, you should see a **View Pull Request** button next to your new branch name.


## Merge the open pull request in Redocly

After you enter the connection details in Redocly, a pull request to merge your updates with the default branch opens as a draft.

1. Refresh your browser to see a **View Pull Request** button next to your new branch name.
2. Select **View Pull Request**.
3. Review your updates in the **Review** tab.
4. Select the **Ready for review** button to take the pull request out of draft.
5. After the tests have run and your pull request has been approved, click the **Merge** button to merge your updates with the default branch.
