Add an inventory item to your game#

The following instructions describe how to add an inventory item to your game’s economy system.

1. From the Unity Cloud Dashboard, open Economy and select Configuration.
2. On the Configuration screen, select Add resource.
3. Set Choose a type to Inventory item.
4. Give the inventory a resource name, and an ID for use in API calls. For example, if your in-game inventory item is a magic hat, the item name could be Magic Hat, and the ID is auto-generated from the name but you can change it to anything that suits you and your game.
5. Select Next.
6. You can add any optional custom JSON data you want allocated to this inventory item by entering it into the Custom Data box. See Custom data.
7. Select Add.

The new inventory item now appears on the Configuration page of Economy.
