Few times our clients requeted some HTML page to be in their back offices instead of separate URLs. Usually, those are simple admin features of some external systems and they want to avoid remembering two different admin URLs. Sometimes it is even Umbraco page like "export" of some sort, for which we produce XSLT macro and put it on protected page. However, often they ask why it is not in back office.
I know everything can be programmed, but for simple projects we try not to include .net programmers but only webmasters with basic XSLT knowledge and no razor/.net knowledge.
This is possible. What you need to do is create a dashboard control with an iframe. So upload your html file to your umbraco site you can put the page in the root of the website. Next create a .net usercontrol with an iframe on it and point the src to the html file. Update the dashboard.config to point to the usercontrol.
html page as back office section?
