# How do I insert an image into my document?

Firstly, in order to include an image in a document on Overleaf, you need to upload the image file from your computer using the "Upload files" button in the project menu:

![Upload files button above the file list panel](/files/s6XlkddpHF7cXjtVdD5r)

Then you can include them in your document using the `\includegraphics` command, such as in this example:

```latex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{YOUR-FILE-NAME-HERE}
\end{document}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/latex/questions-and-answers/31-how-do-i-insert-an-image-into-my-document.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
