Description

The types for IconButton (IconButtonProps) do not include href. However, the types for Button (ButtonProps which use ButtonBaseProps) do include an href.

Reproduction/example

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-azd4us?file=src%2FApp.tsx

Steps to reproduce

Paste the following code in an IDE with support for TypeScript (e.g., VS Code):

import { Button, IconButton } from '@carbon/react';
import { Information } from '@carbon/react/icons';

const Temp = () => (
  <>
    <Button
      id="help-button"
      hasIconOnly
      renderIcon={Information}
      iconDescription="Help"
      href="/help"
      target="_blank"
      rel="noreferrer"
    />
    <IconButton
      id="help-icon-button"
      label="Help"
      href="/help"
      target="_blank"
      rel="noreferrer"
    >
      <Information />
    </IconButton>
  </>
);

See the following error:

Type '{ children: Element; id: string; label: string; href: string; target: string; rel: string; }' is not assignable to type 'IntrinsicAttributes & IconButtonProps & RefAttributes<unknown>'.
  Property 'href' does not exist on type 'IntrinsicAttributes & IconButtonProps & RefAttributes<unknown>'. Did you mean 'ref'?

Button accepts href. IconButton does not. They both should.

Suggested Severity

Severity 4 = Unrelated to a user task, has a workaround or does not need a workaround.
