# Resource Calendars

**Here, you can find information about resource calendars and how to add them to your Channels and Pages.**

## What is a Resource Calendar?

In addition to scheduling meetings in Google Calendar, Google Workspace users in your organization can manage resources that people share. The most common example of a resource is a meeting room. Other examples include projectors, company fleet cars, guest offices, recreation equipment or any other resource people might schedule a time to use.

## How to create a Resource Calendar in Google Workspace

As a Google Workspace Admin, you can:

1. Go to the Google Workspace **Admin console**  
2. Click on the **Menu** icon  
3. Select **Directory**  
4. And click on **Buildings and resources**  
5. In the Resource management section, click on **Open**  
6. Click on the **Add** button (it's a plus sign)  
7. Enter the resource information. You can choose between the types:  
   1. Conference room: Resources used for meetings or conferences that can be as small as a phone room  
   2. Other: Resources that aren’t used for meetings. For example, a bicycle or company car  
8. Click on **Add Resources**

2. Calendar Page Widgets

   2. [Month Widget](https://help.happeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/7751701187601)

### Channel Calendar

Resource Calendars can be added to [Channel Calendars](https://help.happeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/7929569700241) by going to the:

1. Calendar tab in the [Channel Navigation](https://help.happeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/7806759811857)
2. On the right-hand side under **Users** you will see the Resource Calendars dropdown

### Calendar Page Widget

🗒️ **Note:** Only Resource Calendars available in your Google Workspace directory will appear in the selection list. If a resource is missing, check its visibility and permissions in Google Workspace.

You can add Resource Calendars to both the **Schedule** and **Month** Calendar Widgets on Pages V1 and Pages V2 (called “Calendar Widget”). This makes shared resources like meeting rooms visible directly where your team works.

To add a Resource Calendar, first add a Calendar Widget to a section on your page. When configuring the widget, select the Resource Calendar directly from the calendar selection window.

🗒️ **Note:** Resource Calendars must be selected from the list of available calendars. It is not possible to add a Resource Calendar by pasting its Calendar ID into the widget.
