Posted on by QAdude5000

i'm trying to set up a channel in teams where if someone puts in a message it will create a task, and assign the task to whom ever was mentioned in the message. it seems to be that the message mentions isn't in the right format for planner. 

 

thanks

    Hi @QAdude5000 ,

     

    Do you want to create a task for someone  when he is @mentioned in teams?

    The trigger ‘When I am @mentioned’does not support mentioned people’s ID.

    I provide you with an alternative, use ‘When I am mentioned in a channel message’as trigger.
