Hello everyone
Can we create a custom field in notes object.
As i want to find specific notes using my meta information(created as custom field). is there a way to create one and find using that field.
Hi @Sharad!
Currently, there are no custom fields for notes. The only object you can link to a note today are comments:
https://developers.pipedrive.com/docs/api/v1/Notes#addNoteComment
But there is no full text search for these comments right now in the API, so I would not recommend using these to find something.
The best trick would be to use the note itself, since you can use the /ItemSearch endpoint to perform a full text search that includes any notes:
https://developers.pipedrive.com/docs/api/v1/ItemSearch#searchItem
For instance, let’s say you add this text anywhere in your note content:
My field: hello
And then you use the ItemSearch endpoint:
GET https://<Your company domain>.pipedrive.com/api/v1/itemSearch?term=My field: hello
It will return all objects with the notes that have this text.
