Will reply to my own question. It seems like this is not the preferred way of doing things. Non CMS related data shouldn't be managed in Umbraco (maybe only if it's a simple CRUD based data service). We will integrate a dashboard in our website to manage non CMS related data, which seems more logical than to integrate it into Umbraco.
Integrating custom data
Hello,
Are there any guidelines for integrating custom data into Umbraco (8)? More specific, integrating a microservice to manage and read data.
I know there is probably not a standard approach, as it depends which functionalities you need, but any guidelines may be helpful.
From what I can see, we will need to do this using a custom section/tree. Which also means, integrating it with angularjs.
I've seen a package called fluidity, but it's for v7 and we probably need something more customizable.
Anyone got some advice?
Another bump :-). I know it's not an easy or simple question to answer, but guidelines can be enough!
