I am using VSTS and would like numerous people to get sent the notification when a work task is created.
I am creating a lot of stencils that can just automate and upload work tasks through the TEAM add-in in excel, but don't know how to make the "@mention" function work.
I have written all sorts of styles of syntax in the history field, then publish but nothing seems to work.
Has anyone figured this out?
Cheers Dave
The format is like:
<a href="#" data-vss-mention="version:2.0,userid"></a>
You can To get the userid through User Entitlements-Lists REST API:
GET https://{accountName}.vsaex.visualstudio.com/_apis/userentitlements?api-version=4.1-preview
