Put the NavigationLink into the label of a button.

.navigationBarItems(
      trailing: Button(action: {}, label: {
         NavigationLink(destination: NewView()) {
              Text("")
         }
      }))

Three steps got this working for me : first add an @State Bool to track the showing of the new view :

@State var showNewView = false

Add the navigationBarItem, with an action that sets the above property :

 .navigationBarItems(trailing:
        Button(action: {
            self.showNewView = true
        }) {
            Text("Go To Destination")
        }
    )

Finally add a navigation link somewhere in your view code (this relies on also having a NavigationView somewhere in the view stack)

NavigationLink(
            destination: MyDestinationView(),
            isActive: $showNewView
        ) {
            EmptyView()
        }.isDetailLink(false)

It is an iOS13 bug at the moment: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/124757

The "sort-of" workaround can be found here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/57837007/4514671

Here is my solution: MasterView - 

import SwiftUI

struct MasterView: View {

    @State private var navigationSelectionTag: Int? = 0

    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            VStack {
                NavigationLink(destination: DestinationView(), tag: 1, selection: self.$navigationSelectionTag) {
                    EmptyView()
                }
                Spacer()
            }
            .navigationBarTitle("Master")
            .navigationBarItems(trailing: Button(action: {
                self.navigationSelectionTag = 1
            }, label: {
                Image(systemName: "person.fill")
            }))
        }
    }
}

struct MasterView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        MasterView()
    }
}

And the DetailsView - 

import SwiftUI

struct DetailsView: View {
    var body: some View {
        Text("Hello, Details!")
    }
}

struct DetailsView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        DetailsView()
    }
}

This works for me:

    .navigationBarItems(trailing: HStack { AddButton(destination: EntityAddView()) ; EditButton() } )

Where: 

struct AddButton<Destination : View>: View {

    var destination:  Destination

    var body: some View {
        NavigationLink(destination: self.destination) { Image(systemName: "plus") }
    }
}
