# 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.

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://docs.silverband.com.au/home/rapla/get-started/add-new-resources.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.
