                    }]
                },
                "styleClasses": "col-md-6",

Controlling Which Accordion is Open (modelActiveTab)

Note: Available from BetterForms v3.2.27+

Use modelActiveTab to control which accordion row is open. This creates two-way binding between the accordion state and your data model.

Example:

{
  "type": "accordion2",
  "model": "contacts",
  "modelActiveTab": "activeContact",
  "slots": [{
    "html": "{{row.name}}",
    "slot": "tabLabel"
  }],
  "schema": {
    "fields": [{
      "type": "input",
      "label": "Name",
      "model": "name"
    }]
  }
}

Model:

{
  "contacts": [
    { "name": "Ada Lovelace" },
    { "name": "Grace Hopper" }
  ],
  "activeContact": 1
}

In this example, the second accordion (Grace Hopper) opens on load because activeContact is set to 1. When users toggle accordions, activeContact updates automatically. Leave it blank or undefined to start with all accordions closed.

Notes

Set the min and max values to the same number to permanently hide the add and delete icons. Data within your data models array will still render rows accordingly.
