# Notes API
|
|
|
|
Notes are comments on:
|
|
|
|
- Snippets
|
|
- Issues
|
|
- Merge requests
|
|
- Epics **(ULTIMATE)**
|
|
|
|
This includes system notes, which are notes about changes to the object (for example, when an
|
|
assignee changes, GitLab posts a system note).
|
|
|
|
## Resource events
|
|
|
|
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/38096) in GitLab 13.3 for state, milestone, and weight events.
|
|
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/40850) in [GitLab Starter](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 13.4 for iteration events.
|
|
|
|
Some system notes are not part of this API, but are recorded as separate events:
|
|
|
|
- [Resource label events](resource_label_events.md)
|
|
- [Resource state events](resource_state_events.md)
|
|
- [Resource milestone events](resource_milestone_events.md)
|
|
- [Resource weight events](resource_weight_events.md) **(STARTER)**
|
|
- [Resource iteration events](resource_iteration_events.md) **(STARTER)**
|
|
|
|
## Notes pagination
|
|
|
|
By default, `GET` requests return 20 results at a time because the API results
|
|
are paginated.
|
|
|
|
Read more on [pagination](README.md#pagination).
