Creating role with the same NAME value

Tuesday, August 21, 2018 at 08:35am

I have an issue where I am adding 2 signers to a package that have the same name. They have unique IDs and different email addresses. Is there a solution to this use case?

{
    "signers": [{
        "firstName": "JOHN",
        "lastName": "SMITH",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }],
    "name": "JOHN SMITH",
    "id": "0012a00000AIGloAAH",
    "type": "SIGNER"
}

{
    "signers": [{
        "firstName": "JOHN",
        "lastName": "SMITH",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }],
    "name": "JOHN SMITH",
    "id": "a0L2a00000055wyEAA",
    "type": "SIGNER"
}

Error

{
    "messageKey": "error.validation.existingRole",
    "message": "Invalid role name. Another role exists with the same name.",
    "code": 400,
    "name": "Validation Error"
}

Hi there, From my test, if you add all roles when creating package, the "name" attribute can be the same. While if you add roles separately, their name can't be the same(but firstname and lastname are allowed to be same). So you can either add two roles together at one call when creating transaction, or you simply don't assign their name and you can use Firstname and Lastname to combine the name in your code. Hope this could help you! Duo
