Change relation manager to instead creating a new record, select from an existing record to attach.

I have a

UserResource

UserResource

with a relation manager for equipment.
However instead of creating a new record "New Equipment" at the edit page of User, I want it to actually be where it simply updates the selected Equipment

user_id

user_id

to what user I am currently at the edit page of.

As of now I only have this at the

EquipmentsRelationmanager.php

EquipmentsRelationmanager.php

wherein it only shows Options that doesn't have a user_id already in

Forms\Components\Select::make('name')
       ->label('Equipment')
       ->options([Equipment::whereNull('user_id')->pluck('name')
]),

Forms\Components\Select::make('name')
       ->label('Equipment')
       ->options([Equipment::whereNull('user_id')->pluck('name')
]),

this leads to simply creation of a new record.

I am a beginner, hoping a clear explanation and guidance for my level. Thank you!

Solution

I found out that there is an appropriate headeraction for it using "AssosciateAction" at https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/panels/resources/relation-managers#associating-and-dissociating-records
