# Add New Resources

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

By default, resources in Rapla are categorised into three: Facility, Equipment, and Staff. These are highly customisable depending on your business or institution's requirements. Adding resources is best done before you create sessions or events, as Rapla has the capability to detect conflicts when it comes to managing your resources. This knowledge article will guide you on how you can add new resources in Rapla by type: Facility, Equipment, and Staff.
