You need to write a callback function when interacted with note.
Code:
void PickedUpNote(string &in entity)
{
SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", true);
}Write PickedUpNote in level editor for the not, in "when interacted" part.
Place a grunt or something where you want, then deactivate it, then activate it with note.
Next time, try to search, which will give you much faster and better answers.

I got an error when i test the map, do i need to replace the "string &in entity" into the note's name? I am new to these things, sorry.

There should be some interact call back in the level editor for the note. Just write PickedUpNote there, no need to write string &in entity anywhere.

I'm afraid I also have a question,
, do you mean writing PickedUpNote in the notes CallbackFunc, and writing SetEntityActive in the notes PlayerInteractCallback? I'm a little bit confused right now.
