      Requirements

      1. A ws setup.
      2. A ws client of your choice. You can use https://github.com/ankitagarwal/moodle-ws-client/blob/master/client.php if you like.

      Test

      1. Create a few notes. (You can do this by visiting any user profile in a course). Add notes in all different contexts (Site, personal, course)
      2. Update your ws script to call function "core_notes_get_notes" and params as an array of note ids 

        $params['notes'] = array(1,2,3); // If using REST
        		 
        $params = array(array(1,2,3)); // for xml-rpc

      3. Make the ws call, make sure you get the note details in response and not an invalid param error.
      4. Repeat this with core_notes_delete_notes (The response for delete calls are empty xml structure)

      Description

      Hi,
      I have issues with the delete_notes WS functions...

      After a review of the notes/externallib.php code review, a fix could be, on line 229:
      $params = self::validate_parameters(self::delete_notes_parameters(), array('notes' => $notes));
      Instead of:
      $params = self::validate_parameters(self::delete_notes_parameters(), $notes);
      The errors I have with the WS function are:
      Calling parameters do not match signature
      (If I incorporate the 'notes' index that is missing) Or
      Missing required key in single structure: notes
      (If I do not incorporate it...)
      As I have tested all the combinations possible for the WS function parameter, I hope it is not a misunderstanding on my side...
