How can I get the uploaded file before saving data

Is there a way to get the uploaded file before saving data to the database in CreateCustomer class that extends CreateRecord

class CreateCustomer extends CreateRecord
{
    protected static string $resource = CustomerResource::class;
}

class CreateCustomer extends CreateRecord
{
    protected static string $resource = CustomerResource::class;
}

this is the form in resource class

Select::make('group_id')->translateLabel()
      ->options(Group::pluck('name', 'id'))
      ->searchable()
      ->hiddenOn(['edit'])
      ->required(),
TextInput::make('phone')->translateLabel()
       ->required()
       ->maxLength(191),
TextInput::make('email')->translateLabel()
      ->email()
      ->maxLength(191),
FileUpload::make('identity'),

Select::make('group_id')->translateLabel()
      ->options(Group::pluck('name', 'id'))
      ->searchable()
      ->hiddenOn(['edit'])
      ->required(),
TextInput::make('phone')->translateLabel()
       ->required()
       ->maxLength(191),
TextInput::make('email')->translateLabel()
      ->email()
      ->maxLength(191),
FileUpload::make('identity'),

Solution

I found a solution, just use

$this->form->getRawState()

$this->form->getRawState()

I used

to catch the data before save and do my customization, I can get all the data of the form fields from $data parameter, but the file upload field data not found in the $data parameter in this function

what do you need to do to the file before saving data to the database?

I have conditions and based on these conditions I store the data either to the actual table or to another table with the uploaded files
