Create a new data entry (note) within a Dovetail project. Data entries capture raw research data — interview transcripts, survey responses, or session recordings. They must be associated with a project via project_id.

Note: The notes resource has been renamed to data in Dovetail. New integrations should use Create data (POST /v1/data) instead.

You can provide the initial content as plain text or HTML via the content field, and attach custom field data via the fields array.

Returns the note object without the content body.
