Fields

Notes can only have certain fields and have a specific format. Some of these fields are the same as other objects and some are specific to the Note object.

id

This is a unique value that identifies the Edge. The id of an Edge is generated automatically. It is a random 7-14 character long string that can contain any of the following values:

0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-_

cdate

The Creation Date or cdate is a unix timestamp in milliseconds that can be set either in the past or in the future. It usually represents when the Edge was created.

tcdate

The True Creation Date or tcdate indicates the date in unix timestamp in milliseconds when the Edge is created. Unlike the cdate, its value cannot be set or modified by the user and it is not displayed in the UI.

mdate

The Modification Date or mdate shows when the Edge was last modified. The mdate value is a unix timestamp in milliseconds that can be set either in the past or in the future.

tmdate

The True Modification Date or tmdate indicates the date in unix timestamp in milliseconds when the Edge is modified. Unlike the mdate, its value cannot be set or modified by the user and it is not displayed in the UI.

ddate

The Deletion Date or ddate is used to soft delete an Edge. This means that Edges with a ddate value can be restored but will appear as deleted. The ddate value is a unix timestamp in milliseconds that can be set either in the past or in the future.

signatures

The signatures field indicates who created the Edge. Even though the field is an array of strings, only one item can be present in the signatures field. Users can sign with different ids depending on their permissions.

readers

The readers field is an array with Group ids that indicates who can retrieve the Edge or see the Edge in the UI.

nonreaders

The nonreaders field is an array with Group ids that indicates who cannot retrieve the Edge or see the Edge in the UI. This field is useful in case we want to use a group id in the readers field that contains a member that we want to exclude from the readers. In this case, we can specify the Group id of that user in the nonreaders field.

writers

The writers field is an array with Group ids that indicates who can modify the Edge.

The head field can contain a Note id or a Group id and connects it to the Note id or Group id defined in the tail field. This field is always mandatory and cannot be empty.

tail

The tail field can contain a Note id or a Group id and connects it to the Note id or Group id defined in the head field. This field is always mandatory and cannot be empty.

tail

The tail field can contain a Note id or a Group id and connects it to the Note id or Group id defined in the head field. This field is always mandatory and cannot be empty.

label

The label field contains a string that gives extra information to the Edge. This information can be used to classify Edges and differentiate them from other Edges that have the same Invitation, tail and head values.

weight

The weight field contains a number that defines the weight between two entities defined in head and tail.

invitation

The invitation field contains the Invitation id that was used as template to create the Edge.

tauthor

The tauthor field contains the identity of the user that created the Edge. This property is only present when the user is writer of the Edge.
