In Dynamics Crm 365 (online), is it possible to create and display a custom button/icon in the navigation bar?

There is no possibility to use XrmToolBox SiteMap Editor in Dynamics 365, but there is new feature. Built in SiteMap Editor. Go to Default Solution -> Apps -> and click Sales

Then you can see the AppDesigner window

Click Arrow away SiteMap button and thats all, you can use new SiteMap Editorenter image description here

    Thanks for the response. I need the button to be available in the navigation bar (next to the search and history icons). I created an unsupported workaround attaching a script to a hidden button on the dashboard toolbar. – noobie Feb 07 '17 at 23:25
  • @noobie "attaching a script to a hidden button on the dashboard toolbar" is supported if you have done through the ribbon customization.. only injecting scripts & DOM manipulation is unsupported. – Arun Vinoth-Precog Tech - MVP Aug 18 '17 at 19:01

Update:

In recent times, the global navigation bar is customizable in Ribbon workbench and buttons can be added in supported way under Mscrm.GlobalTab Read more

We achieved by doing this.

Add/Use an existing ribbon/command bar button & it's Enable rule as shortcut to execute the below script as a Function from javascript web resource: [Simply copy this script, change org_url & run it in browser developer toolbar console to see it in action]

    var element = window.parent.document.getElementById("navTabGroupDiv");
    var url = "http://<org_url>/_imgs/AboutBox.gif";
    var para = document.createElement("img");
            para.id = "myimg"
            para.alt = "OhMyGod";
            para.src = url;
            para.style.float = "right";
            para.style.height = "30px";
            para.style.marginTop  = "10px";
            para.onclick = function () {
                var webResource = 'test.html';
                Xrm.Utility.openWebResource(webResource, null);
            };
            
            element.appendChild(para);
            
            var Relement = window.parent.document.getElementsByClassName("navTabFiller");
            if (Relement!=undefined && Relement.length > 0)
                Relement[0].remove();

enter image description here

Note: This DOM element manipulation is unsupported but this is the only way.
