5. In the Add Resource screen, you can define a folder in the directory field, as well as individual files. When you specify a resource, the typed path must start where the GuardPoint ends. In the following example, the intended resource is test.pdf, located inside the C:\Data directory. Since the GuardPoint is C:\Data, you can manually type in your resource in the File field. 

   • For example, Guard Point = C:\Data - File = test.pdf - Complete Path = C:\Data\test.pdf.

     Note

     When specifying a resource, do not use Select a Host or the Browse function to designate a directory path. This feature automatically puts the full path of the resource in the Directory field. This action will cause the rule to be analyzed incorrectly. Also, by default, the Include Sub-Folders is selected. This option permits access to any sub-folders beneath the specified resource. If necessary, you can unmark this option.

6. Click Ok to apply the new resource to your Resource Set. 
   • (Optional) To add additional resources, click Add, and then return to step 5.
