Creating a Resource

Creates a resource. The set of required fields depends on the calculation type.

v1/resources/add.php

Parameters

A category can be passed by name: if there is no such category, it is created. The IDs of existing categories are returned by v1/categories/get_list.

Resource types

The calculation type determines which fields are needed when creating a resource.

The calculation basis (base) of a percentage resource:

• "cost": the product cost without percentage resources;
• "price": the sale price from the product card.

Units of measure

A resource can use any unit, including the time and energy units available to resources only: "h", "min", "kWh". See the full list in Units of Measure.
