How to add Notes body through API
I saw Bocknote.js is used for the body of notes. Should we use the blocknote library to e.g. parse markdown to the a blocknote format, like described here: https://www.blocknotejs.org/docs/editor-api/converting-blocks#parsing-markdown-to-blocks or is there another way?
BlockNote
Markdown & HTML - BlockNote
It's possible to export or import Blocks to and from Markdown and HTML.

Hello @thomasmol, I assume you're trying to directly hit the API in order to insert notes programmatically ?
yes exactly!
Ok ! To transpile to the new data type we've been using blocksToMarkdownLossy
You can find migration command and some context here
Are you using the REST or GRAPHQL API ?
This is how the API will validates an
RICHT_TEXT_V2 arg
I feel like you shouldn't have to transpile markdown to blocknote on your own rather than sending stringified markdown to the API 🤔
What have you tried and what issues have you faced until now ?
Also how the front stringifies the input@thomasmol the new RICH_TEXT_V2 field has been released. The API (graphql for now) is much more convenient. We will fully deprecate RICH_TEXT (v1) in 0.43
Now you'll be able to push either markdown or blocknotejs json format, which will make API usage much more efficient
