I can't figure it out how to add links dynamically to customer navigation.

this is my xml:

<referenceBlock name="customer_account_navigation">
   <block class="Vendor\Module\Block\Custom\Link\" name="block">
       <action method="addCustomLink">
        <!--  HERE DYNAMICALLY NEEDS TO ADD ARGUMENTS e.g label, path etc..-->
       </action>
    </block>
</referenceContainer>

Block:

class Link extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Html\Link\Current
{
  public function addCustomLink() 
   {
    $parent = $this->getParentBlock();

            $parent->addLink(
                'Dynamic Label goes here',
                'Dynamic Url goes here',
                'Dynamic title goes here'
         );
   }
}

This is giving me error: Invalid method Magento\Customer\Block\Account\Navigation::addLink .

Anybody have any suggestion how could one do this?

Thanks in advance.

In app/code/VENDOR/MODULE/view/frontend/layout/customer_account.xml you can add following line:

<referenceBlock name="customer_account_navigation">
            <block class="Vendor\Module\Block\Custom\Link"
                   name="test-customer-account-navigation-link">
                <arguments>
                    <argument name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">DYNAMIC TEXT NED TO DISPLAY</argument>
                    <argument name="path" xsi:type="string">DYNAMIC YOUR_PATH_URL(like: customer/account ) </argument>
                    <argument name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">240</argument>
                </arguments>
            </block>
        </referenceBlock>

Update

Then,app/code/VENDOR/MODULE/Block/Custom/Link.php

namespace Vendor\Module\Block\Custom;

class Link extends \Magento\Customer\Block\Account\Link
{
    public function setPath($path)
    {
        $this->setPath($path);
    }

    public function setLabel($label)
    {
        $this->setLabel($label);
    }
/** 
 * you can directly change href also like this;
 * if you use getHref() then setPath() will be ignored
 *
 * @return string
 */
 public function getHref()
 {
    return 'https://www.google.com/';
 }

}

It should work.
