SettingsCard can also be turned into a button, by setting the IsClickEnabled property. This can be useful whenever you want your settings component to navigate to a detail page or open an external link. You can set a custom icon by setting the ActionIcon, or hiding it completely by setting the IsActionIconVisible to false.
