DocuSign Require Signing Document Twice with Different Tabs - ruby

Question

I have a document that is using tabs to fill a document. The document is signed before and after completion of a task. Is it possible to modify tabs on an envelope - then re-generate an DocuSign_eSign::RecipientViewRequest (still having the initial signature / fields)?
Thus far I've been able to generate two DocuSign_eSign::RecipientViewRequest, but cannot figure out how to change the tabs in between signing:
PRE_SIGNER = 'pre_signer'
POST_SIGNER = 'post_signer'
PRIVATE_KEY = CREDENTIALS['private_key']
PUBLIC_KEY = CREDENTIALS['public_key']
USER_ID = CREDENTIALS['user_id']
CLIENT_ID = CREDENTIALS['client_id']
ACCOUNT_ID = CREDENTIALS['account_id']
BASE_URL = CREDENTIALS['base_url']
configuration = DocuSign_eSign::Configuration.new
configuration.host = "#{BASE_URL}/restapi"
configuration.debugging = true
api_client = DocuSign_eSign::ApiClient.new(configuration)
api_client.base_path = BASE_URL
envelope_api = DocuSign_eSign::EnvelopesApi.new(api_client)
pre_signer_text = DocuSign_eSign::Text.new
pre_signer_text.value = 'Alpha'
pre_signer_text.tab_label = 'pre_value'
pre_signer = DocuSign_eSign::Signer.new
pre_signer.role_name = PRE_SIGNER
pre_signer.client_user_id = PRE_SIGNER
pre_signer.recipient_id = 1
pre_signer.name = 'Kevin Sylvestre'
pre_signer.email = 'kevin#fake.com'
pre_signer.tabs = DocuSign_eSign::Tabs.new
pre_signer.tabs.text_tabs = [pre_signer_text]
post_signer = DocuSign_eSign::Signer.new
post_signer.role_name = POST_SIGNER
post_signer.client_user_id = POST_SIGNER
post_signer.recipient_id = 2
post_signer.name = 'Kevin Sylvestre'
post_signer.email = 'kevin#fake.com'
post_signer.tabs = DocuSign_eSign::Tabs.new
post_signer.tabs.text_tabs = []
server_template = DocuSign_eSign::ServerTemplate.new
server_template.sequence = 0
server_template.template_id = TEMPLATE_ID
inline_template = DocuSign_eSign::InlineTemplate.new
inline_template.sequence = 0
inline_template.recipients = DocuSign_eSign::Recipients.new
inline_template.recipients.signers = [
pre_signer,
post_signer,
]
composite_template = DocuSign_eSign::CompositeTemplate.new
composite_template.server_templates = [server_template]
composite_template.inline_templates = [inline_template]
envelope_event = DocuSign_eSign::EnvelopeEvent.new
envelope_event.envelope_event_status_code = 'completed'
envelope_definition = DocuSign_eSign::EnvelopeDefinition.new
envelope_definition.status = 'sent'
envelope_definition.composite_templates = [composite_template]
api_client.request_jwt_user_token(CLIENT_ID, USER_ID, PRIVATE_KEY)
envelope = envelope_api.create_envelope(ACCOUNT_ID, envelope_definition)
pre_signer_recipient_view_request = DocuSign_eSign::RecipientViewRequest.new
pre_signer_recipient_view_request.authentication_method = 'none'
pre_signer_recipient_view_request.client_user_id = PRE_SIGNER
pre_signer_recipient_view_request.user_name = 'Kevin Sylvestre'
pre_signer_recipient_view_request.email = 'kevin#fake.com'
pre_signer_recipient_view_request.return_url = 'https://ksylvest.com'
pre_recipient_view = envelope_api.create_recipient_view(ACCOUNT_ID, envelope.envelope_id, pre_signer_recipient_view_request)
url = pre_recipient_view.url
`open #{url}`
puts "Continue?"
gets
# at this point I'd like to enter values for tabs...
post_signer_text = DocuSign_eSign::Text.new
post_signer_text.value = 'Omega'
post_signer_text.tab_label = 'post_value'
post_signer_recipient_view_request = DocuSign_eSign::RecipientViewRequest.new
post_signer_recipient_view_request.authentication_method = 'none'
post_signer_recipient_view_request.client_user_id = POST_SIGNER
post_signer_recipient_view_request.user_name = 'Kevin Sylvestre'
post_signer_recipient_view_request.email = 'kevin#fake.com'
post_signer_recipient_view_request.return_url = 'https://ksylvest.com'
post_recipient_view = envelope_api.create_recipient_view(ACCOUNT_ID, envelope.envelope_id, post_signer_recipient_view_request)
url = post_recipient_view.url
`open #{url}`

Answer 1

You could add the same person to sign twice, as two separate recipients that are the same person. You can generate different recipient views. You can set the routing order to be different. Only reason I didn't post this as an answer is that you may mean that you need to pause the envelope?
you can add tabs using your code where you have post_signer.tabs, but if you want to modify existing tabs that came from the template then you have to create the envelope in draft mode ("created") and then make a different API call to modify the tabs and then a final API call to send it. Another option is to pause the envelope and "correct" it.
