Custom button in ActiveAdmin

On ActiveAdmin, I have a form like this:
Note that "My thingy" is not on the DB, but calculated with the data from an API.
enter image description here

I want to add a filter for this field. What I'd like is to send this abc text as a parameter to the same edit action in which I am.

enter image description here

My form looks like this:

form do |f|

  f.inputs "Details" do

    f.input :my_thingy,

      label: 'My thingy',

      as: :select,

      collection: my_thingys,

    f.input :my_thingy_filter, label: "Filter My thingy by..."

    f.button :filter

  end

  f.actions

end

What I'd like is for this button to redirect to the same page, with the value of my_thingy_filter as a parameter.

How can I do that?

I solved this using a member_action:

member_action :thingy_filter, method: :patch do

  redirect_to edit_thingy_path(resource, thingy_filter: params["thingy"]["thingy_filter"])

end

And formaction with the button:

form do |f|

  f.inputs "Details" do

    f.input :my_thingy,

      label: 'My thingy',

      as: :select,

      collection: my_thingys,

    f.input :my_thingy_filter, label: "Filter My thingy by..."

    f.button "Filter", formaction: "thingy_filter"

  end

  f.actions

end

Anyhow, this problem was better solved by adding a better select
