Data Transfer

The data-transfer icon represents the process of moving data from one location to another, symbolizing data exchange, synchronization, and file sharing. It originated from the concept of uploading and downloading files and has become a crucial symbol in modern computing. The data-transfer icon is significant in the context of cloud storage, networking, and data management.

In real-world applications, the data-transfer icon appears in cloud storage platforms, file transfer services, and data management tools. For example, it may be used to represent a 'upload' or 'download' action in a file manager.

From a UX perspective, the data-transfer icon communicates a sense of movement and exchange, helping users understand that a particular feature or action involves data transfer. It can guide users towards managing and sharing their files efficiently.

Data Transfer is one of 400 icons in Kameleon color icons, made by Streamline and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 48 × 48 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds DataTransferIcon to components/icons/streamline-kameleon-color-data-transfer.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed DataTransferIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Data Transfer icon, or any of 400 Kameleon color icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's multicolor, so it keeps its own colors.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 48 × 48 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It keeps its own colors in light and dark mode, so check it against both backgrounds. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Data Transfer", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. DataTransferIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <DataTransferIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
