I'm wondering if it's possible to add a hibernate button to the power menu of ubuntu 20.04. Online I found only solutions which require the use of the terminal.

The steps are in the github page which is a link shown while downloading the extension from gnome-extensions website.. Infact for testing I did follow the steps from above way..– UnKNOWnJul 20, 2020 at 11:47

There is a extension for Hibernate Button in the Power Menu.
Hibernate gnome-shel Extension
Out of the box there is no effect when you click on the two items, Hibernate and Hybrid Sleep..
If you go to the Extension Homepage link provided on gnome extension website for the Hibernate Extension you will find FAQ part on the README.md
Following the workaround from the FAQ.. copy paste the below content in the file
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla
[Enable hibernate in upower]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
[Enable hibernate in logind]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate;org.freedesktop.login1.handle-hibernate-key;org.freedesktop.login1;org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-multiple-sessions;org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-ignore-inhibit
ResultActive=yes
Open the file with below command
sudo -H gedit /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla
Copy paste the above content, save the file and close..
Reboot & Test it..
