Answers.Text: i tried fiddling with the Note get in API explorer, but with no parameters selected i don't see anything except for entities with 'note' returned 'participant_note' doesn't appear tied to this.

Title: API usage: How to change the 'participant_note' field in the Participant entry for an event
ThreadText: # API usage: How to change the 'participant_note' field in the Participant entry for an event
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2017-09-25)
  
  I need to update the 'participant\_note' field for a few Event Participants via the API. I can't figure out how to do this using the API explorer (it seems the explorer does not recognize 'participant\_note' as a valid field).  
  Here is an example of a Participant get call

  Look for it in civicrm\_note (Entry *Note* in the API Explorer) It will be tied back to the Participant Table via civicrm\_note.entity\_table and civicrm\_note.entity\_id.
