Policy view(User $user, Type $type) not being called

Package Version

Laravel Version

Livewire Version

PHP Version

PHP 8.1.0

Problem description

I generated a new policy file using php artisan make:policy TypePolicy --model=Type

and a new file TypePolicy.php has been generated. During the configuration, the public function view(User $user, Type $type): bool is not being called. Does it have a new name?

Expected behavior

Normally, it should apply a filter in the rows shown in the table, in this case it shows all the records regardless the settings true/false. By checking the logs, it seems the function is never called.

Steps to reproduce

php artisan make:model Type -m

php artisan make:filament-resource Type

and configure the resource as shown:

public static function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->columns([
            Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('name')
                    ->searchable()
                    ->sortable(),
        ])
        ->filters([
            //
        ])
        ->actions([
            Tables\Actions\EditAction::make(),
        ])
        ->bulkActions([
            Tables\Actions\BulkActionGroup::make([
                Tables\Actions\DeleteBulkAction::make(),
            ]),
        ]);
}

php artisan make:policy TypePolicy --model=Type

public function view(User $user, Type $type): bool
{
    return false;
}

Have you registered the policy? Laravel 10.x doesn't auto-register policies, that's a new feature in Laravel 11.x

Seems no https://github.com/towerthepower89/filament-issue/blob/main/app/Providers/AuthServiceProvider.php#L15-L17

hi, thank you, indeed it was missing. I updated the version with the policy registration, still the same issue. All the other policies are/were already working, so viewAny, create, delete, update: all of them are correctly applied, but view seems to be skipped.

@towerthepower89 If I understand you correctly you need to add update function to TypePolicy. Because you are trying to edit not view Type entity

My end goal would be to hide some rows based on the user group, for example removing RDX and ILX, or all. In the example attached I removed some methods, like delete and update, those have been tested and worked perfectly. From my understanding, by returning false from the view function, no rows should be displayed. Probably I am missing something, thank you for your help.

@towerthepower89 According to the Laravel documentation, the view function determines whether a user can view the model or not. It seems you are trying to filter the row list. I suggest you change your query. Try checking the Customizing the Table Eloquent Query'section and adjust your filter according to the user group.

As for me it's not a filament issue at all.
