* **Import Data module** - Use the [Import Data](algorithm-module-reference/import-data.md) module to directly access data from online datasources.

## Use Azure Machine Learning datasets

We recommend that you use [Azure Machine Learning datasets](concept-data.md#datasets) when you import data into the designer. When you register a dataset, you can take full advantage of advanced data features like [versioning and tracking](how-to-version-track-datasets.md) and [data monitoring](how-to-monitor-datasets.md).

The designer uses an internal data type to pass data between modules. You can explicitly convert your data into data table format using the [Convert to Dataset](algorithm-module-reference/convert-to-dataset.md) module.

The designer uses an internal data type to pass data between modules. You can explicitly convert your data into data table format using the [Convert to Dataset](algorithm-module-reference/convert-to-dataset.md) module. Any module that accepts formats other than the internal format will convert the data silently before passing it to the next module.
