Disambiguate duplicate names?

Menotti Minutillo February 9, 2024

Atlas does not have any metadata when mentioning users, so if you have multiple users in your org with the same display name, the below happens. Worse, if you @ mention them or try to add them to the project, then remove them, they are auto added as followers which the project owner then cannot remove - so it is spammy.

 

I would like for this bounding box to include some metadata as to help differentiate users. Email, user name, title, something. Otherwise it literally breaks my ability to do basic tasks like write updates.

There's no way for the box to do this without breaching privacy laws in many countries.  All you can do is ask your users to add identifiers that they don't care about sharing into their names.
