### Load Local files
## Load Local files
To load local files with `getJSON` and `getCSV`, the source files must reside within Hugo's working directory. The file extension does not matter, but the content does.
It applies the same output logic as above in [Calling the Functions with a URL](#calling-the-functions-with-a-url).

## LiveReload with Data Files
There is no chance to trigger a [LiveReload][] when the content of a URL changes. However, when a *local* file changes (i.e., `data/*` and `themes/<THEME>/data/*`), a LiveReload will be triggered. Symlinks are not supported. Note too that because downloading of data takes a while, Hugo stops processing your Markdown files until the data download has completed.
