`useRecordFromLocation`

Return a record that was passed through either the location query or the location state.

You may use it to know whether the form values of the current create or edit view have been overridden from the location as supported by the Create and Edit components.

Usage

// in src/posts/PostEdit.tsx
import * as React from 'react';
import { Alert } from '@mui/material';
import { Edit, SimpleForm, TextInput, useRecordFromLocation } from 'react-admin';

export const PostEdit = () => {
    const recordFromLocation = useRecordFromLocation();
    return (
        <Edit>
            {recordFromLocation
                ? (
                    <Alert variant="filled" severity="info">
                        The record has been modified.
                    </Alert>
                )
                : null
            }

                <TextInput source="title" />
