Salesforce ACTION
Update Content Note
Update an enhanced Salesforce content note (rich text, stored in Salesforce Files). Use Update Note instead for classic plain-text notes - the two are different objects. Supplying
Content replaces the note body outright rather than appending to it. Notes must be enabled in the org first - see Set Up Notes. See the documentation- Action

Connect a user's Salesforce account once, then configure and run Update Content Note from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "salesforce_rest_api-update-content-note",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
salesforce_rest_api: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
contentNoteId: "Content Note ID",
OwnerId: "Owner ID",
},
})
