Actions

The board speaks Filament actions: the ones you already use on tables (EditAction, ViewAction, DeleteAction, your own Action::make()) work on cards, with their forms, modals, slide-overs, confirmations and notifications.

Actions need a component with Filament's action support. KanbanPage and KanbanResourcePage have it; for your own Livewire component see Installation.

Card actions

cardActions() lists the actions in each card's menu (the ⋯ button, above "Move to"):

use Filament\Actions\Action;
use Filament\Actions\DeleteAction;
use Filament\Actions\EditAction;

->cardActions([
    EditAction::make()->schema(DealResource::fields())->slideOver(),
    Action::make('hot')
        ->label('Mark as hot')
        ->icon(Heroicon::OutlinedFire)
        ->action(fn (Deal $record) => $record->update(['is_hot' => true])),
    DeleteAction::make(),
])

The card's record is the action's record: inject $record (or Deal $record) anywhere, as on a table. It is loaded through the board's query(), so an action can never reach a record the user cannot see on the board; for such a card the action is hidden and refused.

Once an action has run, the board reloads its cards (keeping the search and filters), so an edited card shows its new content, a deleted one disappears and a card whose column changed moves.

Your own hidden(), visible(), authorize() and disabled() rules keep working, with the record injected. The menu is built once for the whole board (never per card), so an action a card should not offer at all is left out with Card::actions():

->card(fn (Deal $deal) => Card::make()
    ->title($deal->company)
    ->actions($deal->is_locked ? ['view'] : ['view', 'edit', 'delete']))

Open a card in a modal

cardAction() names the card action a click on the card runs, instead of following its url():

->cardActions([EditAction::make()->schema([...])->slideOver()])
->cardAction('edit')

A click opens the slide-over; Ctrl/⌘-click and middle-click still open the card's URL in a new tab when it has one. A drag never counts as a click.

Create a card in a column

createAction() puts a "+" in the header of every droppable column. The action's form opens, and the new record gets that column: the board sets the column attribute in the data it saves.

use Filament\Actions\CreateAction;

->createAction(
    CreateAction::make()
        ->label('New deal')
        ->schema([
            TextInput::make('company')->required(),
            TextInput::make('amount')->numeric()->prefix('$'),
            Select::make('owner_id')->relationship('owner', 'name'),
        ])
        ->slideOver(),
)

The model is taken from the board's query unless you set one with ->model(). The column attribute must be fillable on the model (or add it yourself in ->using()). mutateDataUsing() still runs first, before the board adds the column.

The "+" is left out of columns that are hidden, not droppable, marked creatable(false), or full (a WIP limit), and the server refuses a create into any of them.

Header actions

A board page is a Filament page: getHeaderActions() adds buttons above the board as usual (a link to the list view, an import, a "New" button that opens a full form).
