Hi dKayt, try this code ->

{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
  "elmType": "a",
  "attributes": {
    "href": "=[$FileRef]",
    "target": "_blank"
  },
  "children": [
    {
      "elmType": "span",
      "txtContent": "[$FileLeafRef]"
    }
  ]
}
