Creating custom resources

To create custom resources:

  1. On the Organization profile page, go to the Resources tab or to the collection where you want to add the resource. Click the New resources button and select Other resources. This option appears when at least one custom resource is allowed to be created from the UI.

  2. You can also create the custom resource from a specific Collection details page. Browse to the specific collection and click the New Resource button on the Collection details page. Select Other resources.

    If you are allowed to create resources in specific collections only, this is the only place from where you can create the custom resources.

  3. In the Add new resource window, set the following and click Continue.

    1. Provide a title for the resource. If a resource with the identical title already exists, you are informed about it. In case multiple resources have the same title, a list of up to 50 resources will be provided in a collapsible menu. By clicking on a resource title, you can open it in a new window to review its content. Duplicate names for resources are allowed, and you may proceed to create the resource with the chosen name.

    2. Select the owner. By default, the owner is set to be the organization where you are creating the resource. If you are creating the custom resource from the Collection Details page, the owner is set automatically and the dropdown is disabled.

    3. Choose from the available types.

    4. Choose the collection in which you want to create the resource. If you are creating the custom resource from the Collection Details page, the collection is set automatically and the dropdown is disabled.
