Upon review of existing tools, we've chosen to add a 'wiki_link' attribute to each object that links to pages in our existing internal documentation wiki. Thanks for the response Morten

Is there any efforts to add a "Wiki" or "Documentation" tab to netboxes and rooms? I'm thinking of integrating something like a mini wiki, like TiddlyWiki , in an additional tab for netboxes and rooms
to
have field editable configuration notes, etc. - maybe with the
ability
to store files to be associated with the device or room also
(manuals,
configs, drawings, photos, screencaps, et al).
Looking to see if anything similar is being worked on, before I start studying the NAV code and look how to integrate such.
Hi Corey,
there are no plans for this type of functionality, no. The closest thing we have today are the more structured "attributes" you can add to devices.
There has been several ideas to add integration points where a NAV admin can configure links to external information systems - i.e. if you have information about an IP device in a 3rd party system that can be reached via a URL, NAV can link directly to that information. Same thing goes for rooms, locations, interfaces, etc.
There's no issue for this on GitHub yet, but implementation wouldn't take too much effort.
I think this is a more viable option than integrating a Wiki directly into NAV.
