  Hi@...,

  Thanks for your feedback! There have been a few request's for @mentions in the Slack integration, definitely agree that this would be a good feature to have in the integration.

  We've captured this as a feature request for the Slack integration and will let you know if and when we decide to develop this.

  Thanks,

  David

  Hey Fikir,

  Whilst this feature is not currently built into the Slack integration; i'd recommend for you to check out this post here in the link below. When an agent @mentions you in Zendesk, it can also ping you in slack too. It has the steps on how to set up this workaround until Zendesk built such a feature. :)

  Best,

  We're just starting to investigate using the side conversations feature and this would be a huge plus to be able to do mentions, especially when we need to tag in a specific person or escalate to a specific user group. For example, we have a guru mention group for our new associates to ping/ask questions to the senior team members about tickets. If they can do that from the ticket with the mention instead of going into slack, it would be incredibly useful!

  Something I did notice today is that mentions for user groups seem to work as well as mentions where there is not a space in the display name. If the user has a space in the Slack display name, this doesn't work.

  Was there any update on if this capability was added? I was wondering if we could mention people on slack through Zendesk so our team doesn't miss any of the tickets we submit.

  We've been using group tagging- wherein we are able to tag slack groups in our organization through slack side convos.
  
  We use @groupname (in black font) and this seems to work on our end, groups are notified accordingly on slack.

  However- specific individual name mentioning is still not working.

  Xendit Zendesk TeamIf you change the Slack display name of the individual person to one word (ex. @SaraLedger instead of @Sara Ledger) then it should work the same as groups. It's annoying to have to update everyone's display names but thats the workaround I found in the meantime. Hope that helps!

  Sara Ledgercould you please elaborate on how you got this to work? I have a display name in slack that is only 1 word (@mo) but I still could not get the zendesk side conversation to tag me in a message. It worked fine for a group though

  I was also unable to get the one-name @ mentions to work. The workaround I found was:

  • Go to the desired user's Slack profile by clicking on their name in a conversation
  • Click the three dots icon on the right side about halfway down the profile pane
  • Copy member ID
  • Inside the side conversation in ZD, type <@member id>, replacing member id with the value you just copied (you need to include the angle brackets)

  在实践中,这如果不是很方便you need to mention a person just one time - it's faster just to open Slack and mention them directly in the thread. We have certain people on Slack that need to get notified regularly about certain tickets (for instance, colleagues in sales and billing), so for those types people, you can set up a macro to open a new side conversation in Slack and mention them. That way, you only need to do the above steps one time for each of those people.

  Mo Shujaatperhaps the above will help in your case.

  Mo ShujaatIf anyone else's slack starts with @mo such as @mowens and @moe both being in Slack, the integration won't know which one is being referenced so it won't connect. It has to be a unique display name. I would check if anyone else in your org has any mentions that start with @mo because you may need a more unique identifier like @mohammadshujaat vs @mo.

  Hope that helps!
