Can you @mention @assignees via the API?

I would like to @mention assignees via the api. I can see that you can @mention a specific user but I do not see how you can do that via a group like assignees. I am modifying a task via the API and would then like to notify all current assignees after modification. If @mention is not possible, is there potentially a better way to notify all current assignees on a task via the API after I update?

Thanks!

Hi Joe Hawker, welcome to the Community! 

I can see that you've already discussed this with our support; for anyone else reading this thread - it's currently not possible to @mention assignees using the API.

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

i am sorry to revive this old thread, but i did not find any more recent concerning this issue 

is that still the case in 2022?

would be really bad for me since the automation i try to do in wrike relies on those @mentions for a big part... :(

EDIT: SOLUTION!!!
<a class="stream-user-id avatar quasi-contact" rel="&#64;assignees">&#64;assignees</a>

will create @assignees with the notification trigger 

it also works for named @John Doe
<a class="stream-user-id avatar" rel="{User ID}">&#64;John Doe</a>

you can check what u need by creating the comment you need in a ticket and then fetching those comments via the api 


Lisa maybe you can add this to the API Documentation (at least i didnt find it there)
