# Add new source to an existing access group

`POST /api/v1/access-groups/{id}/source`

Sources can be defined as specific resources or as all resources of a certain type (including both existing and newly created ones).

**Examples:**

1. **All Networks**

```
"source": [
  {
    "type": "NETWORK_SERVICE",
    "allCovered": true
  }
],
```

This configuration allows all networks, including their applications and IP services, to access this access group’s destination resources.

1. **Specific Network**

```
"source": [
 {
   "type": "NETWORK_SERVICE",
   "parent": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
   "allCovered": true
 }
],
```

This configuration allows a specific network with ID `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001`, including its applications and IP services, to access this access group’s destination resources.

1. **Specific IP Service within a Network**

```
"source": [
  {
    "type": "NETWORK_SERVICE",
    "parent": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
    "children": ["00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002"]
    "allCovered": true
  }
],
```

This configuration allows a specific IP service with ID `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002` within a network with ID `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001` to access this access group’s destination resources.’
