Sadly, this is not supported by Laravel Nova out of the box.
Luckily there is a package that does add this support: https://github.com/dillingham/nova-attach-many

Hi, Thanks in advance
I got User and Role models, which have many to many relationships between them. I need to add a dropdown with a multi-select option for picking the roles of the users. Nova's default behavior is adding roles after creating the user. So if a user needs to create another user and assign some roles he needs to create the new user then edit that user and assign the roles. I managed to get the dropdown of roles but unable to save that role and the user resource. Is there any to overcome this? I need to save the roles at the time of user creation itself, or there any way to override the save method for that particular user resource?
