@Mentions with Email Notification

[dreifsnider]

Hi,

Many of our reviewers would like the ability to @mention another user in a comment or a message. Additionally, they would like the @mention to send an email notification to the person mentioned depending on their notification settings.

The idea being that the reviewer does not have to use another messaging platform to ask or respond to questions, and all questions and responses are captured directly in the review task.

This functionality is similar to what exists in Google Docs and Office 365 products.

Thank you!

Daniel

Thank you Mihaela!

Do you have this feature registered for Web Author as well? Our SME users who are using Web Author have also said they would like the ability to @mention other users in a Web Author comment. For what it's worth, we are using GitHub as our version control.

Thanks!

Daniel
