Saved data not showing in multiselect field

What I am trying to do: Displaying the data that is picked from the multiselect. What I did: Made a new column in the database:

$table->json('value_types')->nullable();

$table->json('value_types')->nullable();

Set cast to array & added it as fillable in the model. Then in my resource added the following:

Select::make('value_types')
    ->label('Toon meter waarde')
    ->options([
      'temperature' => 'Temperatuur',
      'co2' => 'CO2',
      'movement' => 'Beweging',
      'pressure' => 'Druk',
      'illuminance' => 'Verlichting',
      'io_status' => 'IO Status',
      'humidity' => 'Vochtigheid',
     ])
     ->searchable()
     ->multiple()
     >columnSpan(2),

Select::make('value_types')
    ->label('Toon meter waarde')
    ->options([
      'temperature' => 'Temperatuur',
      'co2' => 'CO2',
      'movement' => 'Beweging',
      'pressure' => 'Druk',
      'illuminance' => 'Verlichting',
      'io_status' => 'IO Status',
      'humidity' => 'Vochtigheid',
     ])
     ->searchable()
     ->multiple()
     >columnSpan(2),

My issue/the error: Values are saved correctly in the database, but when i reopen the form the multiselect field is empty. So it's not showing the values i just saved. When i then save the fields again it saves an empty array.

When you save and dump the data, what does it actually return? Like dd($yourModel->value_types)?

Can you add ->rules(['array']) to your component ? I had a similar issue where the component needed to validate as an array for it to output the data
