ganeshsanap We have created an edit no add permission role and we are running into an issue with users being able to @mention on an item. This role does contain the "edit items" permission, however when a user tries to @mention a coworker they are blocked. It seems I can grant a user the Contribute role, but I don't want items added or deleted from the list which is why I created this editing role. Any thought on why they wouldn't be able to @mention? They can comment, just not @mention.
JulieReutBier Can you share screenshot of your custom permission level to see which permissions are selected and which are removed?

JulieReutBier When you mention users in comment, SharePoint checks if users have permissions to the list item.
If they don't have permissions, SharePoint grants permissions to users on the list item. For managing permissions in SharePoint Edit or higher permissions are required.
