Add a custom controller entry in the Sonata menu

I'm trying to following this section on Sonata's official website to add a custom controller to my menu.

What I have is a working controller;

class HelloController extends Controller {

    /**
     * 
     * @Template()
     * @param type $name
     * @return type
     */
    public function indexAction($name)
    {
        $admin_pool = $this->get('sonata.admin.pool');

        return array(
            'admin_pool' => $admin_pool,
            'name' => $name
        );
    }
}

I have registered the controller as a service in my services.yml file;

app.hello_controller:
    class: AppBundle\Controller\HelloController

And finally I've added the controller route as an item to the menu;

sonata_admin:
    dashboard:
        groups:
            Monitoring:
                items:
                    - app.hello_controller

But now I'm getting the error;

An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Admin service "app.hello_controller" not found in admin pool.") in SonataAdminBundle:Core:add_block.html.twig at line 5.

Can somebody please tell me what I'm missing, to add menu items this way?

You need to fix your config. In you example you are adding an admin service with the service id app.hello_controller to the menu.

What you need to do is add the following config to add one specific route / action from the controller:

config.yml

sonata_admin:
    dashboard:
        groups:
            Monitoring:
                items:
                    - route:     your_route_name
                      label:     Your Menu Item Label
