### config

[](#config)

You can customise how the values from checkbox fields are passed to your scripts. By default it's will cast all numeric keys to floats or integers, e.g. \[1, 2, 3\] instead of \["1", "2", "3"\]. You can save disable this feature by calling withoutTypeCasting() to have the original array keys returned unmodified.

```
Checkboxes::make('Permissions')->options([
    1 => 'Access Admin UI',
    2 => 'Manage Users',
])->withoutTypeCasting(),
```

Checkboxes::make('users')
