Introduction

Filament includes an action that is able to replicate Eloquent records. You may use it like so: 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;

ReplicateAction::make()

​
Excluding attributes

The excludeAttributes() method is used to instruct the action which columns should be excluded from replication: 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->excludeAttributes(['slug'])

​
Customizing data before filling the form

You may wish to modify the data from a record before it is filled into the form. To do this, you may use the mutateRecordDataUsing() method to modify the $data array, and return the modified version before it is filled into the form: 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->mutateRecordDataUsing(function (array $data): array {
        $data['user_id'] = auth()->id();

        return $data;
    })

​
Redirecting after replication

You may set up a custom redirect when the form is submitted using the successRedirectUrl() method: 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->successRedirectUrl(route('posts.list'))
As well as $record, the successRedirectUrl() function can inject various utilities as parameters.

Customizing the replicate notification

When the record is successfully replicated, 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: 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->successNotificationTitle('Category replicated')
As well as allowing a static value, the successNotificationTitle() method also accepts a function to dynamically calculate it. You can inject various utilities into the function as parameters.

Lifecycle hooks

Hooks may be used to execute code at various points within the action’s lifecycle, like before the replica is saved. 
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->before(function () {
        // Runs before the record has been replicated.
    })
    ->beforeReplicaSaved(function (Model $replica): void {
        // Runs after the record has been replicated but before it is saved to the database.
    })
    ->after(function (Model $replica): void {
        // Runs after the replica has been saved to the database.
    })
These hook functions can inject various utilities as parameters.

Halting the replication process

At any time, you may call $action->halt() from inside a lifecycle hook, which will halt the entire replication process: 
use App\Models\Post;
use Filament\Actions\Action;
use Filament\Actions\ReplicateAction;
use Filament\Notifications\Notification;

ReplicateAction::make()
    ->before(function (ReplicateAction $action, Post $record) {
        if (! $record->team->subscribed()) {
            Notification::make()
                ->warning()
                ->title('You don\'t have an active subscription!')
                ->body('Choose a plan to continue.')
                ->persistent()
                ->actions([
                    Action::make('subscribe')
                        ->button()
                        ->url(route('subscribe'), shouldOpenInNewTab: true),
                ])
                ->send();
        
            $action->halt();
        }
    })
If you’d like the action modal to close too, you can completely cancel() the action instead of halting it: 
$action->cancel();
