docusign - radioGroupTabs not working (locked out) in a compositeTemplate - node.js

Question

I am trying to add a pdf with form fields document to a docusign envelope using inlineTemplates, everything is good, docusign is able to parse the textTabs, signHereTabs etc, but the problem is radioGroupTabs, when I send the envelope, these fields are locked.
The only way I got those fields unlocked/fillable is by assigning first signer as defaultRecipient.
tabs: {
textTabs: [
{
tabLabel: `ESIG_ADVISORDOC_SIGNER1_\\*`,
},
],
radioGroupTabs: [
{
groupName: `ESIG_ADVISORDOC_SIGNER1_TCP_ADD_REM`, // didn't work
},
{
groupName: `ESIG_ADVISORDOC_SIGNER1_\\*`, // didn't work
}
]
}
I tried multiple things, example use tabLabel in place of groupName for the radioGroupTabs etc etc, nothing worked. Tried with a wildcard, tried with the exact fieldName, tried with both.
Can someone please suggest a solution?

Answer 1

Tabs have an optional field locked. I believe the default for that value should be false but you could try explicitly setting locked to false to force the tabs to be editable.

Answer 2

Finally after two days of trials and errors, found that we need to pass locked: false in the radios attribute.
tabs: {
textTabs: [
{
tabLabel: `ESIG_ADVISORDOC_SIGNER1_\\*`,
},
],
radioGroupTabs: [
{
groupName: `ESIG_ADVISORDOC_SIGNER1_\\*`,
radios: [
{ locked: 'false' }
]
}
]
}
Docusign should be better with their documentation.
