I want to lock some objects when having a set of objects created since they act as background objects, I know you can do this on board, but can it be done when created via miro.board.widgets.create?
Answered
Can you lock objects made via API when they are created?

Hey Saifis!
Unfortunately right now there’s no way to lock/ unlock widgets using API or SDK.
We’ll have a look at it to see if we can add it to the backlog

Hi!
Are there any updates on this feature? I also like to create some widgets that act as background objects and being able to lock them using API or SDK would be extremly helpful.
Yes this feature would be nice to avoid manipulation of custom made items that are not supposed to be edited by the user.
Thanks in advance !
No, you cannot directly lock objects when creating them with `miro.board.widgets.create`. You need to create them first and then lock them using the `miro.board.widgets.update` method.
+1This feature would be great to have as we use widgets like shapes, frame as background to place other widgets like cards and sticky notes within these shapes and frames through the sdk.
