Comments

Shashvat Tripathi Documentation for the notes API can be found at https://demo.openmf.org/api-docs/apiLive.htm#notes
From a microfinance perspective, clients can be aggregated for applying Joint liability principles. Such a collection of clients is called a Group. Some organizations would want to further extend this aggregation, so you have collections of Groups which are called Centers etc.
In Mifosx, Centers were originally modeled as specializations of Groups (centers are also stored in m_group table with level_id set to 1, the level_id for groups is 2), for easier use through the API though, separate API's were created for Centers https://demo.openmf.org/api-docs/apiLive.htm#centers, which are mostly abstraction over the Group API with new center specific permissions.
subramanya Talks about now extending notes API to have a center specific abstractions (with its own permissions), so we need a new notes api which would look like
centers/

{centerId}

/notes/

{noteId}

, also the existing group notes API i.e
groups/

{groupId}

/notes
should no longer work for centers
