To upload a file to Keep using @arv keep put@:
~$ arv keep put var-GS000016015-ASM.tsv.bz2
216M / 216M 100.0%
Collection saved as ...
qr1hi-4zz18-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The output value @qr1hi-4zz18-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@ is the uuid of the Arvados collection created.
Note: The file used in this example is a freely available TSV file containing variant annotations from the "Personal Genome Project (PGP)":http://www.pgp-hms.org participant "hu599905":https://my.pgp-hms.org/profile/hu599905), downloadable "here":https://warehouse.pgp-hms.org/warehouse/f815ec01d5d2f11cb12874ab2ed50daa+234+K@ant/var-GS000016015-ASM.tsv.bz2. Alternatively, you can replace @var-GS000016015-ASM.tsv.bz2@ with the name of any file you have locally, or you could get the TSV file by "downloading it from Keep.":{{site.baseurl}}/user/tutorials/tutorial-keep-get.html
It is also possible to upload an entire directory with @arv keep put@:
~$ mkdir tmp
~$ echo "hello alice" > tmp/alice.txt
~$ echo "hello bob" > tmp/bob.txt
~$ echo "hello carol" > tmp/carol.txt
~$ arv keep put tmp

In both examples, the @arv keep put@ command created a collection. The first collection contains the single uploaded file. The second collection contains the entire uploaded directory.
@arv keep put@ accepts quite a few optional command line arguments, which are described on the "arv subcommands":{{site.baseurl}}/sdk/cli/subcommands.html#arv-keep-put page.
