How to Apply Authorization on Create Option Action for Select Field

Implementing Authorization for Creating Options

When using createOptionForm for a select menu, you can customize the add action (+). One important thing is to add authorization to that action, for example, from a policy.

This will hide the add button next to the select menu when the user is not authorized to create, and the same goes for the edit action.

 1Select::make('category_id')
 2    //...
 3    ->relationship(...)
 4    ->createOptionForm(...)
 5    ->createOptionAction(
 6        fn(Action $action) => $action->hidden(
 7            auth()->user()->cannot(
 8                'create',
 9                Category::class
10            )
11        )
12    ),
