Note Widget

The Note Widget allows users to write and save notes on an item using a WYSIWYG editor.

When to Use​

Use the Note Widget to add rich-text notes, instructions, or comments to a specific item. Useful for collaboration, documentation, or tracking information.

How It Works​

  • Displays a WYSIWYG editor for writing notes.
  • Notes are saved and associated with the given item and a required title.
  • The title is used internally to identify and retrieve the note (not shown to users). This allows multiple notes per item.
  • If itemid is not set, the current item (if any) is used.

Usage Example​

{
  "itemid": 1234,
  "title": "internal_note"
}

This example creates or displays a note for item 1234, identified by the title internal_note.

Options & Parameters​

  • itemid (integer, optional): The item to show the note for. If not set, uses the current item (if any).
  • title (string, required): Internal identifier for the note. Required to ensure notes can be referenced and managed later. Not shown to users.
