Actions

Actions in Inertia Tables provide interactive functionality that allows users to perform operations on table data. The action system supports three types of actions:

1. Row Actions - Actions that operate on individual table rows
2. Bulk Actions - Actions that operate on multiple selected rows

Row Actions

Row actions are interactive buttons that appear for each row in your table, allowing users to perform operations on individual records.

use Egmond\InertiaTables\Table;

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->actions([
            // ...
        ]);
}

Actions may be created using the static make() method, passing its unique name.

You can then pass a function to action() which executes the task, or a function to url() which creates a link:

use App\Models\Post;
use Egmond\InertiaTables\Actions\Action;

Action::make('edit')
    ->url(fn (Post $record): string => route('posts.edit', $record))
    ->openUrlInNewTab()

Action::make('delete')
    ->requiresConfirmation()
    ->action(fn (Post $record) => $record->delete())

All methods on the action accept callback functions, where you can access the current table $record that was clicked.

Bulk actions

Tables also support “bulk actions”. These actions operate on multiple selected rows and appear when rows are selected.

use Egmond\InertiaTables\Table;

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->bulkActions([
            // ...
        ]);
}

Bulk actions may be created using the static make() method, passing its unique name. You should then pass a callback to action() which executes the task:

use Egmond\InertiaTables\Actions\BulkAction;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection;

BulkAction::make('delete')
    ->requiresConfirmation()
    ->action(fn (Collection $records) => $records->each->delete())

The function allows you to access the current table $records that are selected. It is an Eloquent collection of models.
