Is this possible without using an Invoke-UDRedirect?

I have a table with custom columns like below. For some reason using Onclick with Invoke-UDRedirect seems to use the wrong eventdata on occasion (from another object). Button href works fine, except of course it opens in the same window.

Href is faster and works on mobile so it is preferred anyway for a simple URL button.

Working using href

New-UDTableColumn -Property 'Ticket' -Render { 
	New-UDButton -Id "btn$($EventData.Ticket)" -Href "https://url/ticket?id=$($EventData.Ticket)&entry=$($EventData.Entry)" -Text ($EventData.Ticket)
}

Not working consistently with onclick + redirect

New-UDTableColumn -Property 'Ticket' -Render { 
	New-UDButton -Id "btn$($EventData.Ticket)" -OnClick { Invoke-UDRedirect "https://url/ticket?id=$($EventData.Ticket)&entry=$($EventData.Entry)" -OpenInNewWindow } -Text ($EventData.Ticket)
}

We don’t have it but we could add a -Target parameter so you could specify _blank like a regular link to open a new window. If that’s something you want, feel free to open a feature request.
