How to save data to two models in createOptionForm of Select at the same time?

Hello everyone, hope you are doing well! There is a Client model and a Group model in the database. Client model: id, name Group model: id, name, client_id When creating a new client using createOptionForm, I want to create a new group based on client_id after creating a new client at the same time. The problem is how to get client_id and then save it to the Group model. This is the select tag:

Forms\Components\Section::make()
    ->schema([
        Forms\Components\Select::make('client_id')
            ->relationship('client', 'name')
            ->label('Client')
            ->createOptionForm([
                Forms\Components\Section::make('')
                    ->schema([
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name')
                        ->label('Client Name')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255)
                        ->columnSpan('full'),
                        
                Forms\Components\Section::make('group')
                    ->schema([
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name')
                        ->label('Group Name')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255),
                })
        })
    })

Forms\Components\Section::make()
    ->schema([
        Forms\Components\Select::make('client_id')
            ->relationship('client', 'name')
            ->label('Client')
            ->createOptionForm([
                Forms\Components\Section::make('')
                    ->schema([
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name')
                        ->label('Client Name')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255)
                        ->columnSpan('full'),
                        
                Forms\Components\Section::make('group')
                    ->schema([
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name')
                        ->label('Group Name')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255),
                })
        })
    })

Thank you!

I believe you can override what happens when you save using createOptionUsing callback. Something like

->createOptionUsing(function(array $data, Select $component) {
  ... // do whatever you need here
})

->createOptionUsing(function(array $data, Select $component) {
  ... // do whatever you need here
})

You can have a look at the default action in vendor/filament/forms/src/Components/Select.php

$this->createOptionUsing(static function (Select $component, array $data, Form $form) {
    $record = $component->getRelationship()->getRelated();
    $record->fill($data);
    $record->save();

    $form->model($record)->saveRelationships();

    return $record->getKey();
});

$this->createOptionUsing(static function (Select $component, array $data, Form $form) {
    $record = $component->getRelationship()->getRelated();
    $record->fill($data);
    $record->save();

    $form->model($record)->saveRelationships();

    return $record->getKey();
});

Don't know if there's another/better way
