    If you're using a custom SPFx extension, you can inject JavaScript to ensure all external links open in a new tab. After the page loads, you can search for any links (anchor tags) and modify them to include the target="_blank" attribute.

    Here’s an example JavaScript snippet you can include in your SPFx web part or extension:

    document.querySelectorAll('a').forEach(function(link) {
    if (link.hostname !== window.location.hostname)
    {
    link.setAttribute('target', '_blank');
    }
    });
     
    Thanks.
