Checkbox

Overview​

The checkbox component, similar to a toggle, allows you to interact a boolean value.

use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox;

Checkbox::make('is_admin')
Checkbox

If you're saving the boolean value using Eloquent, you should be sure to add a boolean cast to the model property:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class User extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'is_admin' => 'boolean',
    ];

    // ...
}

Positioning the label above​

Checkbox fields have two layout modes, inline and stacked. By default, they are inline.

When the checkbox is inline, its label is adjacent to it:

use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox;

Checkbox::make('is_admin')->inline()
Checkbox with its label inline

When the checkbox is stacked, its label is above it:

use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox;

Checkbox::make('is_admin')->inline(false)
Checkbox with its label above

Checkbox validation​

As well as all rules listed on the validation page, there are additional rules that are specific to checkboxes.

Accepted validation​

You may ensure that the checkbox is checked using the accepted() method:

use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox;

Checkbox::make('terms_of_service')
    ->accepted()

Declined validation​

You may ensure that the checkbox is not checked using the declined() method:

use Filament\Forms\Components\Checkbox;

Checkbox::make('is_under_18')
    ->declined()
