notesobject or null(Notes)

Optional key-value pairs for attaching custom metadata (e.g. invoice references, project codes). Keys must be strings and cannot collide with reserved field names. Your account may require some notes fields: Glomo configures custom field rules per account, and for beneficiaries they are checked when the beneficiary is created. Some fields are also validated by the beneficiary's country (for example, a PAN format for Indian beneficiaries). A missing required field returns 422 with Validation failed: Notes <field> is required, and type and validation errors (such as enum constraints) are returned the same way. The rule is set on your account, not by currency or rail. No API lists the fields, but the 422 names each missing one: add that key to notes with the value your account expects, and ask your Glomo account manager if you don't know what the field should hold. See Custom fields. Each key appears as a separate column in CSV report exports, with corresponding values populating the rows.
