Create variable in templates that can assign a task

Jonathan_Chow

I'm using variables within a template and want to know if I can create a variable that assigns a task to a specific user. 

These variables would be within an action item, however at the moment, when I fill in the variable field it will not let me assign a task/ tag a user. 

For example:

[] Send contract | Variable - @user1

[] Send invoice | variable - @User2

[] Confirm invoice paid | variable - @User2

Hello @Jonathan_Chow,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you!

It's not currently possible to use @ mentions in template variables, but we have a feature request for this below:

• CONFCLOUD-38204 Allow @mentions in template variables

If you vote on the above request, you'll automatically be added to the list of watchers and receive updates on this going forward.

Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Regards,
