menu item depending on user role or permission

How can i set a menu item only, if the user has a specific role? I tried https://filamentphp.com/tricks/conditions-on-user-menu-items-based-on-roles But cant get it running. I installed in config/filament.php
'auth' => [
Authenticate::class,
UserMenuItemMiddleware::class,
'auth' => [
Authenticate::class,
UserMenuItemMiddleware::class,
` I created
php artisan make:middleware UserMenuItemMiddleware
php artisan make:middleware UserMenuItemMiddleware
public function handle(Request $request, Closure $next): Response
{
if (Auth::user()->hasRole('Root')) {

Filament::serving(function () {

Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
'GitLog' => UserMenuItem::make()
->label('Git Log')
->url(route('filament.pages.settings'))
->icon('heroicon-s-cog'),

]);
});
}
public function handle(Request $request, Closure $next): Response
{
if (Auth::user()->hasRole('Root')) {

Filament::serving(function () {

Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
'GitLog' => UserMenuItem::make()
->label('Git Log')
->url(route('filament.pages.settings'))
->icon('heroicon-s-cog'),

]);
});
}
I have a Page in app/Filament/Pages/GitLog.php with
class GitLog extends Page
{
protected static ?string $title = 'Git Log';
protected static ?string $navigationLabel = 'Git Log';
protected static ?string $navigationIcon = 'heroicon-o-document-text';
//protected static ?string $navigationGroup = 'Settings';
//protected static ?string $navigationIcon = 'heroicon-o-beaker';
protected static string $view = 'filament.pages.git-log';
protected static ?int $navigationSort = 4;

public $content;

public function mount(): void
{
//abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root', 'Admin']), 403);
abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root']), 403);
$this->content = file_get_contents(base_path('git-log.txt'));

}

}
class GitLog extends Page
{
protected static ?string $title = 'Git Log';
protected static ?string $navigationLabel = 'Git Log';
protected static ?string $navigationIcon = 'heroicon-o-document-text';
//protected static ?string $navigationGroup = 'Settings';
//protected static ?string $navigationIcon = 'heroicon-o-beaker';
protected static string $view = 'filament.pages.git-log';
protected static ?int $navigationSort = 4;

public $content;

public function mount(): void
{
//abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root', 'Admin']), 403);
abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root']), 403);
$this->content = file_get_contents(base_path('git-log.txt'));

}

}
What to i have to put in app/Http/Middleware/UserMenuItemMiddleware.php please? I want to show the page GitLog.php only when the user has role "Root".

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the need for a middleware... I think you could just do this in AppServiceProvider boot():
Filament::serving(function () {
if (Auth::user()->hasRole('Root')) {
Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
// ...
]);
}
});
Filament::serving(function () {
if (Auth::user()->hasRole('Root')) {
Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
// ...
]);
}
});

Thanks @pboivin I changed it. What do i have to place please inside Filament::registerUserMenuItems My Page i want to show only for user role "xx" is app/Filament/Pages/GitLog.php Or better said the MenuItem i want to show.
Patrick Boivin
Probably something like ->url(GitLog::getUrl())

if (Auth::user()->hasRole('Root')) { returns error: Call to a member function hasRole() on null. the workaround trick is done because of this it seems: https://filamentphp.com/tricks/conditions-on-user-menu-items-based-on-roles

Try Auth::user()?->hasRole('Root')
Falk Maria Zeitsprung
now there is no error 🙂 but my problem is that the menu item i try to load does not appear in the dashboard menu. Nore if the user has roel Root or Admin. I have in AppServiceProvider:
Filament::serving(function () {
// Using Vite
Filament::registerViteTheme('resources/css/filament.css');

Auth::user()?->hasRole('Admin') ? Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
'GitLog' => UserMenuItem::make()
->label('test')
->url(route('filament.pages.git-log'))
]) : null;

});
Filament::serving(function () {
// Using Vite
Filament::registerViteTheme('resources/css/filament.css');

Auth::user()?->hasRole('Admin') ? Filament::registerUserMenuItems([
'GitLog' => UserMenuItem::make()
->label('test')
->url(route('filament.pages.git-log'))
]) : null;

});
and in app/Filament/Pages/GitLog.php
<?php

namespace App\Filament\Pages;

use Filament\Facades\Filament;
use Filament\Pages\Page;

class GitLog extends Page
{
protected static bool $shouldRegisterNavigation = false;
protected static string $view = 'filament.pages.git-log';

public string $content;

public function mount(): void
{
//abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root', 'Admin']), 403);
abort_unless(auth()->user()->hasRole(['Root']), 403);
$this->content = file_get_contents(base_path('git-log.txt'));

}

}

}

}
but the menu item will not show up. for no user role. What is my mistake please? I found it out! I thought UserMenuItems is in the Dashboard menu 🙈 Now is see its the "user"menu. UFFF I want to register in the Dashboard menu on the left side. Is that registerNavigationItems?
