Hello friends, please, has anyone managed to create a note through the API and it appears in the user’s inbox linked to the task?

We were able to create the notes through the API, they appear, but it does not notify the person responsible for the task in the inbox.

We are still learning how to use the Rest API and thanks for the help!

Thanks !

We were successful, just add the information “scope” with the value “[sudo\_as\_login:personallogin@youremail.com](mailto:sudo_as_login:personallogin@youremail.com)” in the API authentication body, so every note created will appear in the inbox
