List note journals

Find journals by linked record. Read entries with notes.list and the returned journal ID.

GET/api/notes/journals
Scope notes:readUpdated October 15, 2026

This page documents the canonical HTTP contract. Switch to the CLI example when you want the operator workflow.

Notes and journals are independent, organization-shared resources. Identity, organization, author, timestamps, and harness provenance are server-owned. Developer keys need the endpoint scope; notes:write does not grant notes:read. These calls complete synchronously and do not consume research credits or start scheduled work.

For longitudinal research, create a journal once, then create a new research_update note per observation with journal_id, explicit related_records, observed_at, and sources. Journal links are independent of entry links. Lead, company, and Deal profiles link to their scoped Notes views. Use the existing Scheduled harness for recurrence; note creation itself does not schedule it.

Writes return {note,replayed} or {journal,replayed}. Retrying a committed write with the same key and input returns the resource's current state and replayed=true. Lists return bounded summaries and next_cursor; get and revision reads contain full content. Lists are ordered by created_at descending with ID as tie-breaker. Revision cursors are scoped to one note. DELETE /api/notes/{note_id} archives a note and preserves its revision history; no hard-delete endpoint is exposed. Failed write candidates are excluded from history.

Clients should preserve unknown BlockNote block data when editing; conversion between Markdown and BlockNote is not performed by the API. File uploads, collaborative editing, and revision restoration are not part of this API.

Query parameters

  • entity_type · optional

    string | null

    lead, company, or deal. Must be supplied together with entity_id.

  • entity_id · optional

    string | null

    Exact linked record ID, paired with entity_type. Filters use both fields from the same link.

  • limit · optional

    integer

    Page size 1-100, default 25. Revision pages also stop at about 700 KB; continue with next_cursor.

  • cursor · optional

    string | null

    Opaque next_cursor from the previous response. Keep filters unchanged when continuing a list.
