Having Resources is vital for organizations that utilize Workstation, as they provide a means for organizing and storing useful materials that can benefit both your teams and users.
Resources are added to Workstation via the Menu Organizer in the Console. Resources are displayed in Workstation's Resources and Tasks tabs, in addition to a few other screens.
In this article, we will go over how and where your Resources are displayed in Workstation.
Displaying Resources in Workstation can be useful in various scenarios, such as:
Employee onboarding: Providing new employees with access to important resources, such as company policies, procedures, and training materials
Technical support: Displaying resources such as FAQs, troubleshooting guides, and video tutorials can help users resolve technical issues on their own
Sales enablement: Providing sales teams with access to resources such as product information can help them better understand the products they are selling and close more deals
Compliance training: Displaying compliance-related resources such as legal documents, training materials, and regulatory updates can help ensure that employees understand and adhere to relevant regulations
Resources are added to Workstation via the Menu Organizer in the Console. To familiarize yourself with the Menu Organizer's functions, start with these links:

When content is updated and published in the Menu Organizer, a Refresh Content button will appear in Workstation for users. By clicking this button, users can update and refresh the WalkMe content within Workstation.
If content is archived in the WalkMe Editor, the Refresh Content button will not be displayed, and Workstation will refresh automatically.
Up to one tasks tab and overall three tabs are supported (this is a Menu Organizer limitation)
Workstation Onboarding Tasks will be marked as completed even if the goal wasn't reached (this is a bug that will be fixed)
Users will still see up to 2 items in their homepage, but they will be displayed based on segmentation
If a user has more than 2 pinned items, the items which appear on top of the resources page will be displayed on the homepage
