Hi andreasz93 

Power BI Service restricts certain HTML behaviors, including opening links in a new tab with a single left-click. While your code with target='_blank' should work in some cases, Power BI may block this behavior for security reasons. There's no straightforward way to force this in Power BI Service. A workaround could be guiding users to right-click and select "Open link in new tab," or embedding reports in an iframe for more control.

If my response(s) assisted you in any way, don't forget to drop me a "Kudos" 🙂
