Group Mentions for Jira

[Parthiban Subramaniam]

Hello All.

I'm Parthi. Part of the i0in team here in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom.

We have been hard at work to create and launch an app that we hope allows users who love and use Jira every day to be able to mention a group with our app.

We are absolutely overjoyed to have our first release available for you in the Marketplace. 

Group Mentions for Jira

Group Mentions for Jira makes mentioning a group as easy as, you would mention a user, while creating or commenting on an issue.

You can mention a group, optionally add them as watchers and manage groups that are watching an issue. To find out more visit https://i0in.com

 Thank you all for your feedback and taking the time to evaluate and considering this app in your Jira ecosystem.

 We look forward to your feedback.

Kind regards,

Parthi

Hello again all.

Quick update, We have released an updated version that allows you to mention roles now :)

Group Mentions for Jira

Mention a role or a group as you would mention a user.

Next iteration it's all about the JQL.

Thanks for your feedback.

Kind regards,

Hi Parthi

Is this app still being maintained?

It's listed as incompatible with the most recent version of Jira Service Management.

Thanks

Hello,
it's an old post and the app was last updated in 2020, so I hope it's ok to take the opportunity to point out a new plugin. If not, I will delete the comment.

I have created a plugin to mention user groups in Jira within the @User mention.

The plugin is called: User Mention Groups and has just been released in a new improved version (3.0.0) for Jira9.

With this plugin, each user/administrator can create their own mention groups and add them to an issue in the ticket details or in the comments using the @mention function. The group name is automatically replaced by the group members, as if all users were entered individually.

In addition, administrators can create global groups that can be used by all users in Jira.
Or you can give different users the authorization to create global groups.
If groups are only to be used via global group assignments (creation via tickets), the admin can deactivate the "Own groups" function for the users.

If you want to inform all users at the same time, you can also use Jira system groups. By default, only administrators can use the system groups, but the option can also be activated for all users.

If you need a plugin version for jira 8.x feel free to contact me.

Yours sincerely
Daniel
