SSantos You can add button in list form footer like:
{ "elmType": "button", "txtContent": "Click" }
But, if you are trying to use "setValue" in form formatting, I don't think it is supported. I will try to get confirmation from list formatting repository maintainers just to be sure.
Documentation: configure the list form
In this case, you can customize list form using Power apps to add button & update form values.

ganeshsanap Thanks, thats what I tried and I can click the button but it doesn't really do anything. The script worked in column formatting but not in forms. But, as you said, it may not be supported yet. Clients want to take the action (i.e. click the button) on the form without going back to the list view.
I'm trying to see if this can be accomplished without integrating with Power Apps or Power Automate but it appears not possible.
