# How to upload your local Anchor into the cloud?

Add **task.run** function on **line 26** to your **CreateAndSaveAnchor** function. We will change the color of the sphere to indicate that it is saved or failed to save.

```csharp
/// <summary>
    /// Creates a sphere at the hit point, and then saves a CloudSpatialAnchor there.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="hitPoint">The hit point.</param>
    protected virtual void CreateAndSaveAnchor(Vector3 hitPoint)
    {
        // Create a white sphere.
        sphere = GameObject.Instantiate(spherePrefab, hitPoint, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
        sphere.AddComponent<WorldAnchor>();
        sphereMaterial = sphere.GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material;
        sphereMaterial.color = Color.white;
        Debug.Log("ASA Info: Created a local anchor.");

        // Create the CloudSpatialAnchor.
        currentCloudAnchor = new CloudSpatialAnchor();

        // Set the LocalAnchor property of the CloudSpatialAnchor to the WorldAnchor component of our white sphere.
        WorldAnchor worldAnchor = sphere.GetComponent<WorldAnchor>();
        if (worldAnchor == null)
        {
            throw new Exception("ASA Error: Couldn't get the local anchor pointer.");
        }

        // Save the CloudSpatialAnchor to the cloud.
        currentCloudAnchor.LocalAnchor = worldAnchor.GetNativeSpatialAnchorPtr();
        Task.Run(async () =>
        {
            // Wait for enough data about the environment.
            while (recommendedForCreate < 1.0F)
            {
                await Task.Delay(330);
            }

            bool success = false;
            try
            {
                QueueOnUpdate(() =>
                {
                    // We are about to save the CloudSpatialAnchor to the Azure Spatial Anchors, turn it yellow.
                    sphereMaterial.color = Color.yellow;
                });

                await cloudSpatialAnchorSession.CreateAnchorAsync(currentCloudAnchor);
                success = currentCloudAnchor != null;

                if (success)
                {
                    // Allow the user to tap again to clear state and look for the anchor.
                    tapExecuted = false;

                    // Record the identifier to locate.
                    cloudSpatialAnchorId = currentCloudAnchor.Identifier;

                    QueueOnUpdate(() =>
                    {
                        // Turn the sphere blue.
                        sphereMaterial.color = Color.blue;
                    });

                    Debug.Log("ASA Info: Saved anchor to Azure Spatial Anchors! Identifier: " + cloudSpatialAnchorId);
                }
                else
                {
                    sphereMaterial.color = Color.red;
                    Debug.LogError("ASA Error: Failed to save, but no exception was thrown.");
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                QueueOnUpdate(() =>
                {
                    sphereMaterial.color = Color.red;
                });
                Debug.LogError("ASA Error: " + ex.Message);
            }
        });
    }
}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.xrdev.app/mixed-reality-docs/lessons/lesson-7/project/how-to-upload-your-local-anchor-into-the-cloud.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
