    What information are you referring to?  You may mean restoring an iCloud backup from a previous device.  Or you may mean adding iCloud calendars, contacts, etc. to your iPhone.

     

    In the former case (restoring a backup), the setup assistant should walk you through that process.

     

    In the latter case (adding contacts, etc.), simply set up your iPhone as an iCloud device in Settings > iCloud.
