Add resources of this type to an office map

If the custom resource you are creating should be bookable, don't forget to include it in an existing booking page or create a new one. Every resource you add to your floors will be visible in the Web Portal.

Your booking pages are under Settings > Advanced Settings > Employee Apps > Apps Pages at the bottom section called Custom Pages (1).

If you'd like to include your brand new resource type in an existing office map, you can include it via the Resource Types dropdown selector (2):
