FAQ

Questions about update_private_note_settings

What does the update_private_note_settings tool do? +

Change Private Notes availability, maximum expiry, verified self-receipt availability and the branded public creation page for the authorized account or domain. Setting public_tool_enabled=true makes the creation page available to public visitors on an active White Label host; false hides it. Receipts allow verified creators to request future email notifications; this call does not send an email. Confirm changes to public access or receipt availability. Omitted fields are unchanged. Requires private-notes:settings:write. Enabling Private Notes alone does not publish the creation page. It is categorised as a Write tool in the TrekMail MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
