Sprout Forms - Can't save front end entry edits

Question

This this might be a bug but want to ask here first in case I'm missing something minor.

Description

Trying to front edit a Sprout Form entry that was created in the front end. I'm using the same form code with additional <input type="hidden" name="entryId" value="###"> field. But it doesn't save the entry, it creates a new entry.

I compared my form fields with plugin backend and think I have everything I need:

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="sprout-forms/entries/save-entry">
<input type="hidden" name="handle" value="handle_name">
<input type="hidden" name="entryId" value="275">

Steps to reproduce

1. Create form entry
2. Edit in front end
3. Submit form
4. Original entry is unchanged and there's a new entry
