Scenario notes

Notes are a way how to share information about a scenario with your team. You can use notes to document and communicate essential details to other Make users.

The following sections describe how to create notes in a scenario, how to inspect and view them and how to manage notes.

Create notes

You can attach a note to any module or any route in the scenario. Each module or route can have up to one note. Within this limit, you can have a maximum of 200 notes in a scenario. Each note can contain up to ten thousand characters.

Note

When you use a lot of formatting, like emojis and links, you might reach the note length limit faster than with no formatting. Make stores your notes in the HTML format, which uses extra characters to set formatting.

To add a note:

  1. Right-click the module or the route to which you want to add the note.

  2. Select Add a note.

  3. Write your note in the text field. Use the quick formatting tools to add formatting, links and emojis to your note.
