Planner Comments Notifications Resolved
Just created what i believe is a highly effective method to ensure Planner Comment Notifications work seamlessly. We're all familiar with the challenge of comments getting overlooked, especially when...
Matthew that is an awesome way to code around planner sending comments to only task assignees versus all project people. One question I would like to take this one step further and not include all the people assigned to the task, but only those we want to call out (or @ mention). Would a possible way to do this is use @ mentions in the comment and then parse the comment for specific @ mentions looking for certain text such as "@matthew" and if that is found within the comment there would be another table for who the email address is to send to. Another option would to always start the comment with @ mention and then end it with a special character to delineate the end like # such as "@matthew#", not sure how you would handle multiple people. Just seeing if you had any ideas on doing this? Thanks for your feedback!
