+= Customizing QuickAccess card icons on the {product} homepage
+
+As an administrator, you can customize the QuickAccess card icons on the {product} homepage to enhance its visual appeal and user experience. You can integrate custom branding or standard icons by leveraging a remote JSON configuration file.
+
+.Procedure
+
+. Add the JSON Data source. The QuickAccess Cards on the homepage supports loading data from a JSON file. This JSON file can be hosted in your GitHub repository or any accessible endpoint.
+
+. Configure the Proxy in `{my-app-config-file}`
++
+To allow the homepage to fetch data from the hosted JSON file, add the following proxy configuration to your `{my-app-config-file}`:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+proxy:
+  endpoints:
+  # customize your backstage instance
+  '/developer-hub':
+    target: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ # For example, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/
+    pathRewrite:
+      '^/api/proxy/developer-hub$': <path-to-your>.json # For example, /redhat-developer/rhdh/main/packages/app/public/homepage/data.json
+    changeOrigin: true
+    secure: true
+----
+
+The following table lists the supported icon types:
+
+[cols="25%,25%,50%", frame="all", options="header"]
