Use Scriptrunner fragment on user hover link

Question

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a simple way to get user information when creating a fragment on section system.user.hover.link.

My goal is to create a simple link to open a Teams chat with a link such as:

msteams:/l/chat/0/0?users=$user.email

Any idea ?

Thanks a lot.

Although this is an old entry, it showed up when I was searching for a similar solution. So for those stumbling about it after me:

$user.emailAddress

evaluates to the email address of the current user, not the profile User. Fortunately, there is the context variable profileUser, which differs from the user object as it is only the username of the profile user.

So to build a link with the profile users email address you can use the userUtils context variable and need to use:

$userutils.getUser($profileUser).getEmailAddress()

I don't use MS Teams ... but I don't think you can open the Teams desktop app.

I found this: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/34501303-open-links-to-teams-in-desktop-app

But with the webitem fragment ... if you want to point to some website with the user's email address, you can add that to your url with users=$user.emailAddress.

Maybe you can try: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=$user.emailAddress
