08/04/2022, 9:07 AMMorning all... is it possible to add a "fake" section to the Umbraco back office? What I mean is, adding an item to the main nav that when clicked, instead of loading a section takes someone to a different place (in this case a 3rd party system)?

Maybe embed an iframe in the section?

A full screen section like Packages may suit your needs here perhaps?
