Requirements

You must have the Comment on Ideas permission set to Grant by the Administrator.

Example

This example shows how to comment on your idea.

In the mutation, you set the parent ID where you want to post the comment, set the subject, and the body of your comment.

mutation {
  createIdeaComment(createInput: {
    parentId: "message:485",
    subject:"Update on the product feature",
    body:"This product feature can be also be used in several third-party applications."
  }) {
    result {
      id
      subject
      body
    }
  }
}

The response generated a unique ID for your comment. The response for the createIdeaComment mutation looks like this.

{
  "data": {
    "createIdeaComment": {
      "result": {
        "id": "message:1381",
        "subject":"Update on the product feature",
        "body": "This product feature can be also be used in several third-party applications."
      }
    }
  }
}
