Web Url's in table , can they be opened in a new window

[Pandadev]

Hi , I successfully worked out how to add web urls to a table , so when published the end user can click on the web url and it opens up the webpage , but I have been asked if it was possible to have the webpages open up in a new window. is this possible in PowerBI

Hi @Pandadev ,

Based on my test , It opens url in a new tab by default in power bi. Would you please refer to  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/visuals/launch-url

Thanks , where and how do I add this code please , still only into my 3rd month of learning powerBI , so still very much a novice

import powerbi from "powerbi-visuals-api"; import IVisualHost = powerbi.extensibility.visual.IVisualHost; export class Visual implements IVisual { private host: IVisualHost; // ... constructor(options: VisualConstructorOptions) { // ... this.host = options.host; // ... } // ... }

Well, back in the day we structured web url's like:

<a href="https://www.domain.com/" target="_blank">Link Text</a>

But I don't think that will work as a Web URL in Power BI
