SugarCRM Rest API Rules

Hello,

Yes I get the Note's ID in the response.

Thanks.

I just ran exactly this same request and I got new Note under specified Account.

Are you able to access the new Note itself?

Request 1: Note appears under specified account:

POST sg-richarddemo.demo.sugarcrm.eu/.../Notes

{
"name": "Test Note 16",
"parent_id": "6c39e3a2-b234-11e6-876e-02b6c8b587a1",
"parent_type": "Accounts",
"note_type_c": "note",
"assigned_user_id": "1",
"team_name": {
"id": "1",
"name": "Global",
"primary": "true",
"selected": "false"
}
}

Request 2: Note is created, but doesn't under specified account

{
"parent_id": "6c39e3a2-b234-11e6-876e-02b6c8b587a1",
"name": "Test Note 31"}

My question is, other than trial and error, how would I find out which fields are necessary for a note to appear under the specified account. I.e. if request 2 was the starting point, how would I find out that parent_type (and possibly other fields) are also necessary: both requests specify a parent_id.

Request 2: {
"parent_id": "6c39e3a2-b234-11e6-876e-02b6c8b587a1",
"name": "Test Note 31"}

is incorrect. You specify a parent_id but you don't specify which module you want to have it connected to? 

The notes module uses a so called 'flex relate'. Which means it can be connected to any module in the system (if it configured). 

To find out how the api works you should take a look at the development guide ( https://support.sugarcrm.com/Documentation/Sugar_Developer/Sugar_Developer_Guide_9.0/Integration/Web_Services/REST_API/) and ofcourse just try things in the ui of sugar with developer tools open to see which requests the system does make. 

Sorry this was an omission in the transcription, Both requests were posted to this endpoint:

POST /rest/v11_4/Notes
Host: sg-richardemo.demo.sugarcrm.eu

Thanks for the tips.
