Okay, so there's a few concepts to unpack here.

Most fundamentally, what you're looking at on the "Overview" page is surfaced by the new to 8.3 [`EntityManager`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition83/8.3.0/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/model/entity/EntityManager.html) API.

As mentioned in the Javadoc there:

> **NOTE:** the entity system is _automatically_ aware of the configuration Resource system. Any resources that have a [`ResourceTypeMeta`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition83/8.3.0/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/config/ResourceTypeMeta.html) registered will automatically be included in the configuration entity.

That's why you have _an_ entry automatically.  
It looks like the link to the configure section is attached to whether your `Category` definition has is providing a set of `ResourceType`s - which it isn't unless you've changed the code since you posted it here: [Ignition 8.3: Controlling placement of nav entries](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-8-3-controlling-placement-of-nav-entries/113736) 😃

That default behavior, linking based on associated resource types, is ultimately decided by the [`DefaultResourceEntityDelegate`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition83/8.3.0/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/config/DefaultResourceEntityDelegate.html) we're creating for you in [`DefaultResourceTypeMeta.Builder`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition83/8.3.0/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/config/DefaultResourceTypeMeta.Builder.html) - if you don't provide or customize one, the no-arg constructor of the default resource entity delegate is used, but you can also provide your own or customize it via `withEntityDelegate` or `buildEntityDelegate` on your type meta builder.

The general recommendation is to have it show up on the platform overview page (which is deliberately meant to be "absolutely everything on this particular gateway"), with customization as needed to tweak the behavior.
