Remove create button inside filamentPHP view

Question

I am currently working on a Laravel project using filamentPHP. However I cannot find a way to delete the create functionality for a specific resource. Considering there is a resource named Customer, in the view page, I would like to remove the new customer button located at the top of the list. Is there any way to do that?

Answer 1

I'm using filament v2.16.66 with Laravel 9.19.

What works for me in order to remove create button in certain lists, is adding the following function in eg: App\Filament\Resources\CustomerResource

    public static function canCreate(): bool
   {
      return false;
   }

Answer 2

A Laravel specific solution is to create a new policy, and override the create() function to return false, like the following:

public function create()
{
   return false;
}

Note: Do not forget to assign the required model to this new policy in /Providers/AuthServiceProvider.php.

Answer 3

You can remove it by override canCreate() and return it as false.

class Customer
{
   public static $resource = CustomerResource::class;

   protected function canCreate(): bool
   {
      return false;
   }
}

Answer 4

You could also just remove the CreateAction::make() from the List page's getActions(). No need to override methods.

protected function getActions(): array
{
    return [
        //  Actions\CreateAction::make(),
    ];
}
