Add action button to form

I'd like to add an action button in the form of a resource. The idea is to use that action method to import details from a model upon clicking it.

    public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([

             // Add action here 
            ]);
    }

    public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([

             // Add action here 
            ]);
    }

I've tried

Action::make('edit')->button()

Action::make('edit')->button()

in a Section component which results in the following error:

 Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer::Filament\Forms\Concerns\{closure}(): Argument #1 ($component) must be of type Filament\Forms\Components\Component, Filament\Actions\Action given

 Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer::Filament\Forms\Concerns\{closure}(): Argument #1 ($component) must be of type Filament\Forms\Components\Component, Filament\Actions\Action given

I think you need Filament\Forms\Components\Actions\Action for that instead of Filament\Actions\Action

That was very helpful for me. Thanks! More and more how I must pass the record data to the called function to be used in any of my services/classes?

with $record

->schema([
    \Filament\Forms\Components\Actions::make([
        \Filament\Forms\Components\Actions\Action::make('myAction')
            ->action(function ($data, $record) {
                // $data will return the submitted form data
                // $record will return the model if you are editing 
            })
    ])

->schema([
    \Filament\Forms\Components\Actions::make([
        \Filament\Forms\Components\Actions\Action::make('myAction')
            ->action(function ($data, $record) {
                // $data will return the submitted form data
                // $record will return the model if you are editing 
            })
    ])

This is what I needed. Thanks. A very humble suggestion: if a likely example (with component paths) were added to docs it'll save much time to the very noobs as I'm. This product is awesome!

Please feel free to do a PR on the docs 🙂
