## Syntax  
  
```  
  
sp_syscollector_upload_collection_set [[ @collection_set_id = ] collection_set_id ]  
          , [[ @name = ] 'name' ]   
```  
  
## Arguments  
`[ @collection_set_id = ] collection_set_id`
 Is the unique local identifier for the collection set. *collection_set_id* is **int** and must have a value if *name* is NULL.  
  
`[ @name = ] 'name'`
 Is the name of the collection set. *name* is **sysname** and must have a value if *collection_set_id* is NULL.  
  
## Return Code Values  
 **0** (success) or **1** (failure)  
  
## Remarks  
 Either *collection_set_id* or *name* must have a value; both cannot be NULL.  
  
 This procedure can be used for starting an on-demand upload for a running collection set. It can only be used for collection sets that are configured for cached mode data collection and upload. This enables a user to obtain data to analyze without having to wait for a scheduled upload.  
  
## Permissions  
 Requires membership in the **dc_operator** (with EXECUTE permission) fixed database role to execute this procedure.  
  
## Example  
 Does an on-demand upload of a collection set named `Simple Collection Set`.  
  
```  
USE msdb;  
GO  
EXEC sp_syscollector_upload_collection_set @name = 'Simple Collection Set' ;  
```
