# About the Resource APIs

The Resource APIs help you manage business resources needed to provide services to customers - things like rooms, equipment, or other assets. Resources are classified using resource types, which ensures that Wix Bookings can automatically check availability and help avoid double bookings.

__Deprecation Notice:__

**Resources V1** has been replaced with the APIs below and will be removed on June 30, 2025.

For migration guidance, see [Resources V1 Migration Guide](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-solutions/bookings/resources/resources-v1/migration-guide.md).

## Current Resource APIs

These 2 APIs allow you to manage resources:

- [Resources V2 API](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-solutions/bookings/resources/resources-v2/introduction.md): Create and manage individual resources like a specific meeting room or piece of equipment.
- [Resource Types V2 API](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-solutions/bookings/resources/resource-types-v2/introduction.md): Set up categories for resources (like "Conference Rooms" or "Laptops"). Every bookable resource must belong to a resource type.

## Related APIs

These APIs work with the Resource APIs to give you complete control:

### Staff members

Staff are handled separately from other resources and have their own API.

[Staff Members API](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-solutions/bookings/staff-members/staff-members/introduction.md): Manage staff members who provide services.

### Business schedules

Each business has a main schedule that defines its operating hours. The business schedule uses the fixed `externalId` value `4e0579a5-491e-4e70-a872-d097eed6e520`. By default, businesses have 5 recurring `WORKING_HOURS` events for each weekday (Monday through Friday) from 10 AM to 6 PM.

Use the Calendar APIs to retrieve and modify business working hours:

- [Events V3 API](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-management/calendar/events-v3/introduction.md): Query events by filtering on `externalScheduleId` and `type: "WORKING_HOURS"` to retrieve working hours, then update or create events to modify them.
- [Schedules V3 API](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-management/calendar/schedules-v3/introduction.md): Get basic schedule information.
