+## Share files with the container
+
+Memgraph in Docker reads and writes files inside its container. A file on your
+machine has to be in the container before `LOAD CSV`, `LOAD PARQUET`,
+`LOAD JSONL` or a CYPHERL import can read it, and a file that
+[`export_util`](/advanced-algorithms/available-algorithms/export_util) writes
+stays in the container until you copy it out.
+
+### Mount a host folder
+
+To share a folder with Memgraph, mount it with `-v` when you start the
+container. Run this in the folder that holds your files:
+
+```bash
+docker run -p 7687:7687 -p 7444:7444 -v "$(pwd)":/data memgraph/memgraph-mage
+```
+
+Memgraph then sees the folder as `/data`. Import a file from it with
+`LOAD CSV FROM "/data/people.csv" WITH HEADER AS row ...`, and export to it with
+`CALL export_util.json("/data/export.json")`; the exported file appears in the
+same folder on your machine. On Linux, exports work only if the container's
+`memgraph` user (UID 101) can write to the folder.
+
+Mount the folder at its own path, such as `/data`, not over
+`/usr/lib/memgraph`, which holds Memgraph and its query modules. Keep the
+database's own data in [named volumes](#persist-data-with-docker-volumes).
+
+### Copy files with docker cp
+
+For a one-off file, copy it into or out of a running container with
+`docker cp`:
+
+```bash
+docker cp people.csv CONTAINER:/usr/lib/memgraph/people.csv
+docker cp CONTAINER:/usr/lib/memgraph/query_modules/export.json export.json
+```
+
+`CONTAINER` is the container's name or ID, as listed by `docker ps`. After the
+first command, Memgraph can read the file as `/usr/lib/memgraph/people.csv`.
