body Message Body Input The body of the comment.

Feed item and comment bodies have a 10,000 character limit. Because this limit can change, we recommend that clients make a describeSObjects() call on the FeedItem or FeedComment object. To determine the maximum number of allowed characters, look at the length of the Body or CommentBody field.

To edit this property in a comment, make a PATCH request to /chatter/comments/commentId. Editing comments is supported in version 34.0 and later.

Rich text and inline images are supported in comment bodies in version 35.0 and later.
