Welcome to the Atlassian Community @EUN JI Choi !!

Go to Space Settings -> Configure Sidebar -> Add link (Under Space Shortcuts) -> Select Web Link -> You can then Add - Address and Link text (as per your need)

Hi,

I knew that function (shortcut). 
I want to configure the menu below it rather than a shortcut in the sidebar.
I link external website with context (word).  
The guide below only describes how to make external links with images or links.

=> Displays an external image and links to an external URL. (but, what I want is not image. )

For example, 'Hello Search', if you click it, you can access external website. 

I want to 'Hello Search' on the side bar ( not space short cut) 

If you know of a possible way, please let me know.

Out of the box, you can only add space shortcut to an external link. You can also explore third party plugins on Atlassian Marketplace that might help you with such customization.

Hi @EUN JI Choi

Can you share a few screenshots of what you are seeing?  

Thanks

EUN JI Choi October 24, 2021

I'm sorry that I can't get screenshot since it is on the company server. 

( I can not attach anything for security) 

I'm trying to add an external link to the sidebar (this is not regular page), but
Instead of an image or a link, I want to insert a text and click on the text to access an external link.

The guide below only describes how to make external links with images or links.

=> Displays an external image and links to an external URL.

 

What I want to do is, 

for example, 

If you click the word 'click', you will be connected to the specified external link.
