Email Notifications for Staff Accounts - @MENTIONS
Answer ID 12821   |   Last Review Date 04/26/2024

How can I send email notifications to staff accounts when they are mentioned in an incident private note?

Environment:

Browser User Interface (BUI), 24A and later

Resolution:

In Browser User Interface agents can mention other agents in private notes.  This action will cause an email to be sent to the mentioned staff account so they can take appropriate action on the incident note.  

For this feature to work, the site must be upgraded to 24A or later.  Staff Account records also must have an email address defined.  The mention feature only works with incident threads that are of type Private Note. 

To use the feature, simply type @ followed by the agent's first and last name.  A menu will automatically appear allowing you to select the correct agent and create a mention.
