Resource files are image or sound files that you use to personalize images on the phone screen or to use a sound file for Music on Hold  or ring tones. Resource files are uploaded to UDM Pro and assigned as resources using Device Profiles.

Add Resources

You add resources to UDM Pro just as you would upload a file to any website. UDM Pro does feature a simple to use drag and drop feature for uploading files, as well as a classic File Explorer interface.


To add new resource files to UDM Pro, you do the following.

  1. On the sidebar, click Resources
  2. On the Resources page, click Add
  3. On the Upload Resource page, you have a couple options to upload the resource file to UDM Pro
    1. From your computer in a file browser, select the resource file to upload, drag and drop it into the dropzone. You can drop multiple files if required.
    2. Click in the dropzone area, and from the resulting file explorer, select the resource file that you want to upload, then click Open
  4. Note that there is a progress bar indicating that the file is uploading. When the file is uploaded, a notification is displayed at the bottom of the page indicating All files uploaded. Click Dismiss on the notification
