Open New Tab in Lightning Out?
Scenario:
I want to create a
List Buttonwhich displays aLightning Component.
- The only way to implement this step is to use a
Visualforce Pagewhich uses aStandard Set Controller, then useLightning Outon that page.
- The only way to implement this step is to use a
I want this
Lightning Componentto include links which should open in a new tab.
- The only way I can find to implement this step is to use
window.open. - I tried out the
<lightning:workspaceApi>, but it does nothing inLightning Out. Nor does it fire any events I could listen for, as far as I can tell.
- The only way I can find to implement this step is to use
I read this post, which works well for a "supported" method of navigation in Lightning Out:
How to navigate in lightning out?
However, it does not mention any way to open links in a new tab.
Questions:
Is there a supported way to open a record view (or any page) in a new tab when using Lightning Out? Is there any problem with using window.open, or any risks involved I should know about?

I don't see any issues using window.open(). According to Locker API Viewer open is supported.
I have a lightning component that leverages LDS sitting in lighting experience that opens a tableau external report using this method.
Reference: Leveraging Lightning Data Service in Lightning
Framework
NOTE: This is my own blog post but the similar code is used for the tableau report!
Based On Comments: Colors highlight the return types of APIs that are secured by the wrapper.
