# DREADDDATA: Index Data over a Socket

The DREADDDATA index action (case sensitive) allows you to directly index data over a socket into the Content component. For example:

    DREADDDATA?optionalParamsData#DREENDDATAkillDuplicatesOption\n\n

NOTE: This index action requires a POST request method. See Send Data with a POST Method.

## Parameters

The following parameters are available for the `DREADDDATA` index action.

`Data` | The content of the IDX or XML document to index. You can use gzipped data. You must add `#DREENDDATA` to the end of your data. `#DREENDDATA` must be uncompressed, even if your data is in gzip format. This parameter is required.
`optionalParams` | The DREADDDATA index action accepts the same optional parameters as DREADD, except for KillDuplicatesOption. NOTE: The DREDbName parameter, which is required for DREADD, is an optional parameter for DREADDDATA. For information about the parameters and options available, see DREADD.
`killDuplicatesOption` | This optional parameter is equivalent to the KillDuplicates parameter for DREADD, except that it does not use the “`KillDuplicates=Option`” syntax. You append the option directly to the `#DREENDDATA` tag that ends the Data parameter (for example, `#DREENDDATAREFERENCE`). The following option values are available: `NOOP` (available for `DREADDDATA` only) `NONE` `REFERENCE` `REFERENCEMATCHN` `FieldName` `ReferenceField,GREATER:VersionField` For more information about these options, see KillDuplicatesOption.
