Description

This message enables you to add a contact note for an existing contact.

The response of the Contact Note POST represents the ID of the contact note in your Brightpearl system.

By adding a contact note to a contact record, you can record any external correspondence with that contact so that it’s visible on their timeline. This is especially useful if your business is using any email marketing or helpdesk solutions, as you’ll be able to use the external tools to manage your customers whilst keeping Brightpearl up to date for your colleagues.

When submitting a contact note, you can specify a specific time to associate with it. This is optional, as most apps will just want to record the note as ‘now’, however you can submit a past or present date if you need to. Be aware that if you submit a note with a future date, that note won’t be visible on the contacts timeline until that date has passed.
