I recommend that you use the [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) plugin and [Run Data Explorer queries with the Discourse API](https://meta.discourse.org/t/run-data-explorer-queries-with-the-discourse-api/120063); it sort-of allows you to generate your own API endpoint (to retrieve [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) data).

Are you requesting as a user that can read those notes?
