assign task to a user when name mentioned

Posted on by 5

Hello,

 

i found this template "Create a Planner task when a channel post starts with TODO".

I would like to assign that task to an user by writing the username or mail into the post.

Does anyone have a solution for that?

    Hi @nosai :

    I've made a test for your reference:

    Finally ,use the variable 'Email' as the value of Assigned User Ids

    My tests:

    Note: There must be spaces between the email addresses in the post, and no spaces are allowed between the email address and the body (each individual email address cannot be concatenated with characters other than spaces)

    Best Regards,

    Bof
