How to trigger a form save from another action?

Goal: What i am trying to achieve is when a user selects an item, if they hit the suffix 'edit' it will take them to that relationships edit page. Problem: When I click the edit option, it goes to the edit page, but it doesnt save that i selected that thing. Here is my select field

Select::make('video_id')
    ->relationship('video', 'title')
    ->searchable()
    ->allowHtml()
    ->required()
    ->getSearchResultsUsing(function (string $search) {
        // some irrelevant code
    })
    ->getOptionLabelUsing(function (int $value): string {
        // some irrelevant code
    })
    ->suffixAction(
        Action::make('edit')
            ->icon('heroicon-m-pencil-square')
            ->action(function ($state, ?Model $record) {
                // go to video edit page
                // somehow trigger form save before navigating away
                info("Edit video with id: $state");
            })
),

Select::make('video_id')
    ->relationship('video', 'title')
    ->searchable()
    ->allowHtml()
    ->required()
    ->getSearchResultsUsing(function (string $search) {
        // some irrelevant code
    })
    ->getOptionLabelUsing(function (int $value): string {
        // some irrelevant code
    })
    ->suffixAction(
        Action::make('edit')
            ->icon('heroicon-m-pencil-square')
            ->action(function ($state, ?Model $record) {
                // go to video edit page
                // somehow trigger form save before navigating away
                info("Edit video with id: $state");
            })
),

any help would be much appreciated!
