But I stuck on **HUMAnN2** input sequence file step

Hi @Anas_Jamshed

Agree, that part is a bit confusing! This step uses the same input file as the prior step. So, scroll up a bit in the tutorial to the prior Data Upload step to find it. It is probably already loaded in your history if you are following the full tutorial.

Right now, that file is exactly this one.

```auto

```

_warning for others reading_: which file to use at any step, in any tutorial, can change over time. So, double check against the tutorial you are following for the exact data to use 🙂

Hope that helps!
