Can you have 2 primary buttons?
Don't have more than one primary action button on the screen at a time. Let users focus on the task at hand. You can have more actions on the page, but make sure there is only one primary. Users have expectations of what a single button on a page will do, based on the page they are on.
Why have primary and secondary buttons?
Primary buttons, which typically have a container with a solid fill, are designed to draw the user's attention. Generally, the user has access to one primary button at a time. Secondary actions offer an alternative to the primary action, so they are given less visual emphasis.
What are primary buttons?
Primary Buttons

What are secondary buttons used for?
