I have an avatar component and I'd really like to make it so that clicking it will redirect to a new URL (to the user's profile URL on a different web app). I've tried using addEventListener() or just assigning avatar1.onclick = () => utils.openUrl("...") but they don't seem to work.
Is there any good way of doing this?

Hey Vitaliy - welcome to the forum!
No event handler on avatar components available right now

Thanks for reaching out! You'll generally need to use the natively supported event handlers, as opposed to adding your own event code. I will make an internal feature request for this & post here with any updates. Could you work around this limitation by putting the avatar in a container, removing the header of the container, and then adding a click event to the container?
Another workaround could be to create your own "avatar" component with the html component, which does support events
I decided to just include a button that links to the URL,
Would be a great feature to have in the future, thank you all for the help

100% agree. Common behavior would be that if the avatar or name is clicked on, it would go to personal settings or user profile - without it, I can see this actually being worse than not having it at all in terms of UX.
