once the data file is added to alchemy in the form of .csv (ex: sample.csv), and if we add data to the steps in a test then,

does the steps in a test take the values from the data file present in alchemy (which we added just now sample.csv)?

or

will it take the values from the local file (sample.csv) which is present in system like my file explorer?

Everything at runtime comes from the file.  During script creation, we read in the data to help design and implement the test, but the data does NOT stay as part of your suite.  It is always read from the executing file system.

The one exception, is the build in JSON data source.  That allows you to store data as part of your test and should ONLYbe used for non-sensative data
