Can we use Customizer instead of header.jsp to customize the navigation bar?

Hi Everyone,

The Customizer is a great tool to make customizations to Connections. We are currently using the Teams integrations and also general CSS customizations to match the styling to our company CI.

However, for customizations to the menus, we still need to modify header.jsp. Or is there guidance on how to do this with the customizer? I have not found anything on this.

Specifically, we wanted to add, for example, an additional menu with links to internal applications or integrate the link to Huddo Boards. If adjustments to the header.jsp are required here, this is always a greater effort. Is this somehow possible with the Customizer?

In this article I have unfortunately found nothing about it: https://github.com/hclcnx/customizer/blob/master/docs/HCLConnectionsCustomizer.md

Any suggestions?

Thanks and regards,
Daniel

This is a very well hidden piece of information.
Doesn't look straight forward, but I will give it a try.
