Delete action

#Overview

Filament includes a prebuilt action that is able to delete Eloquent records. When the trigger button is clicked, a modal asks the user for confirmation. You may use it like so:

use Filament\Actions\DeleteAction;
 
DeleteAction::make()
    ->record($this->post)
use Filament\Actions\DeleteAction;

DeleteAction::make()
    ->record($this->post)

If you want to delete table rows, you can use the Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteAction instead, or Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteBulkAction to delete multiple at once:

use Filament\Tables\Actions\BulkActionGroup;
use Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteAction;
use Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteBulkAction;
use Filament\Tables\Table;
 
public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->actions([
            DeleteAction::make(),
            // ...
        ])
        ->bulkActions([
            BulkActionGroup::make([
                DeleteBulkAction::make(),
                // ...
            ]),
        ]);
}
use Filament\Tables\Actions\BulkActionGroup;
use Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteAction;
use Filament\Tables\Actions\DeleteBulkAction;
use Filament\Tables\Table;

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->actions([
            DeleteAction::make(),
            // ...
        ])
        ->bulkActions([
            BulkActionGroup::make([
                DeleteBulkAction::make(),
                // ...
            ]),
        ]);
}

#Redirecting after deleting

You may set up a custom redirect when the form is submitted using the successRedirectUrl() method:

DeleteAction::make()
    ->successRedirectUrl(route('posts.list'))
DeleteAction::make()
    ->successRedirectUrl(route('posts.list'))

#Customizing the delete notification

When the record is successfully deleted, a notification is dispatched to the user, which indicates the success of their action.

To customize the title of this notification, use the successNotificationTitle() method:

DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotificationTitle('User deleted')
DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotificationTitle('User deleted')

You may customize the entire notification using the successNotification() method:

use Filament\Notifications\Notification;
 
DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotification(
       Notification::make()
            ->success()
            ->title('User deleted')
            ->body('The user has been deleted successfully.'),
    )
use Filament\Notifications\Notification;

DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotification(
       Notification::make()
            ->success()
            ->title('User deleted')
            ->body('The user has been deleted successfully.'),
    )

To disable the notification altogether, use the successNotification(null) method:

DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotification(null)
DeleteAction::make()
    ->successNotification(null)

#Lifecycle hooks

You can use the before() and after() methods to execute code before and after a record is deleted:

DeleteAction::make()
    ->before(function () {
        // ...
    })
    ->after(function () {
        // ...
    })
DeleteAction::make()
    ->before(function () {
        // ...
    })
    ->after(function () {
        // ...
    })
