Is it possible to apply a filter from an action?

I need to create a shortcut filter. I came up with the idea of defining an Action in headerActions. So I am wondering, if there is any possibility to apply filter from an action or possibly modify the eloquent query.

 ->headerActions([
        Action::make('Show Client Translations')
            ->button()
            ->action(function () {
                // Apply filter
                // OR modify table eloquent query
            }),
])

 ->headerActions([
        Action::make('Show Client Translations')
            ->button()
            ->action(function () {
                // Apply filter
                // OR modify table eloquent query
            }),
])

This is what i came up with for now:

->headerActions([
        Action::make('Toggle Translations')
            ->button()
            ->label(
                static::isTranslationFilterSetToClient()
                    ? 'Show Laravel/Filament Translations'
                    : 'Show Client Translations'
            )
            ->url(function () {
                $query = request()->query();

                $value = static::isTranslationFilterSetToClient()
                        ? 'filament'
                        : 'client';

                Arr::set($query, 'tableFilters.group.value', $value);

                return url()->current().'?'.Arr::query($query);
            }),
])

protected static function isTranslationFilterSetToClient(): bool
{
    $query = request()->query();

    return Arr::has($query, 'tableFilters.group.value')
        && Arr::get($query, 'tableFilters.group.value') === 'client';
}

->headerActions([
        Action::make('Toggle Translations')
            ->button()
            ->label(
                static::isTranslationFilterSetToClient()
                    ? 'Show Laravel/Filament Translations'
                    : 'Show Client Translations'
            )
            ->url(function () {
                $query = request()->query();

                $value = static::isTranslationFilterSetToClient()
                        ? 'filament'
                        : 'client';

                Arr::set($query, 'tableFilters.group.value', $value);

                return url()->current().'?'.Arr::query($query);
            }),
])

protected static function isTranslationFilterSetToClient(): bool
{
    $query = request()->query();

    return Arr::has($query, 'tableFilters.group.value')
        && Arr::get($query, 'tableFilters.group.value') === 'client';
}

You can try

->action(function ($livewire) {
    $value = ...

    $livewire->tableFilters['group']['value'] = $value;
})

->action(function ($livewire) {
    $value = ...

    $livewire->tableFilters['group']['value'] = $value;
})

@rumi In case you’re interested I’ve created a plug-in to do just this: give users quick access to filter setting right above the table. (And forgive the shameless plug, just thought it might help.) https://filamentphp.com/plugins/filter-sets
