Saving repeater without using the saveRelationShipUsing

Hi, I have a repeater with nested relations the repeater does not save it right because every model consist of more than table so i need to save it using custom code in SaveRelationUsing it is working now but this pattern repeater in multiple resources so i need to extract this logic to afterSave hook but the issue is the repeater values is not present in $data array Is there any way to access the updated values of repeater fields in after or before save hooks?
Solution:
add dehydrated() in the repeater, after relationship() You will able to get it in the $data or $this->data...

mutateFormDataBeforeSave also afterSave tried dd both $data and this->data yes i am trying to save it manually but in edit not create It is not updating the value because i am trying to return empty array to disable the repeater save
->saveRelationshipsUsing(function () {
return [];
}),
->saveRelationshipsUsing(function () {
return [];
}),
is there other way to disable it

yes, overriding the default behavior you should do all. Check the hooks to achieve what you need https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/panels/resources/editing-records
