Mentions (often known as @mentions) are a useful way of drawing someone's attention to a page or comment.
When you mention a user, they'll receive a notification by email.


You can only mention individual users who are a servicedesk user, reporter or a commenter in a ticket.

Step-by-step guide

Add the steps involved:

  1. Insert your steps.
  2. You can also copy and paste or drag and drop images into your instructions.

Use autocomplete

To mention someone using autocomplete, type '@' in the editor then start typing their name. Choose the person you want to mention from the list of suggestions. 

Confluence will suggest people you've mentioned previously (after yourself, of course).

It then continues to suggest matches as you type. If you've not mentioned the person recently, we'll also include information about whether they've commented or contributed to the current page, to help you find the right person, fast. 


You may also want to use visual panels to communicate related information, tips or things users need to be aware of.
