# Upload smart contracts

The process of uploading smart contracts to the platform enables you to connect your smart contracts with the Threat Detection system and the Firewall. This guide will walk you through the steps to upload your smart contracts to the platform.

To begin, navigate to the address book page. Here, you will find the "Add Contract" button which initiates the uploading of new smart contracts.

Once you click "Add Contract," you will be prompted to select the network your contract is deployed on.

In the next field, enter the address or addresses of the smart contracts you wish to upload. You can enter multiple addresses. After entering the addresses, click the "Apply" button to submit the information. The platform will verify the addresses and proceed to the next step.
