# 5.5 Add the capture kit information (WES sample only) into the tracking database

**This step is required for whole exome sequencing (WES) samples only. Users will need to upload the capture kit information (target region bed file) so the VCPA pipeline can use this information when processing this WES sample. The VCPA API command for this is:**

```
 curl -sS -d filetitle=${file_title} -d desc=${desc} -d s3_path={s3_path} "http://IP/v1/sample/define-target"
```

<mark style="color:blue;">`GET`</mark> `http://IP/v1/sample/define-target`

Add the target file.

#### Path Parameters

| Name        | Type   | Description                        |
| ----------- | ------ | ---------------------------------- |
| file\_title | string | This is the project name.          |
| desc        | string | Description of the file.           |
| s3\_path    | string | S3 path of the target region file. |
