SharePoint LISTS - @ mention Comment
Hello all.
I have started a TEAMS and Sharepoint and LIST for our user group.
Some of the members are outside the organization, and are listed as guests. I have added all the members in TEAMS, Sharepoint and LISTS...
The LIST is for us to collaborate. When I use the comment field and use the @ mention for someone who is a guest or outside the organization, their name does not show up to select them. How can I get these folks to work with the @ mention function.
Thank you for your help.
Julie

- You cannot @mention the external/guest users in list comments.
