Hi 

I have a problem and can't find any information about it.
I use the method miro.board.createCard to create new cards described on the page https://developers.miro.com/docs/card_card-1

If I don't add cusftom fields i.e. leave the array empty ( fields: [] ) - by clicking the detail preview icon for the card - I can edit the fields (color, author, description, etc.)

 

However, if you add a custom field

fields: [ { value: 'Bug fix', iconUrl: 'https://cdn-icons-png.flaticon.com/512/3867/3867669.png', iconShape: 'round', fillColor: '#E5E5E5', textColor: '#000000', tooltip: 'Caption text displayed in a tooltip when clicking or hovering over the preview field', }, ],

- in this preview all fields are locked

I cannot change them here.
However, from the toolbar I can do it (for some fields)

This bar allows you to change the fields: color, status, date, author, tag, etc. However, you cannot provide a description.

Question:

Why are the fields in the preview blocked after adding custom firlds and cannot be changed?

 

Regards

The description is a bit inaccurate, i.e. it is about card detailed view when the user clicks on the open modal icon on the app card preview.

The read-only mode is enabled on card item when something is added to the "fields" field - i.e. in this case in the card detailed view modal, the form fields (title, color, status, description, etc.) are locked and cannot be changed - the message In read -only mode is displayed at the bottom of the window.

Hey @jkowalski,

Thanks a lot for raising this—I can see the behavior you’re referring to. Let me raise this with our engineering team and get back to you shortly.

Thanks!
