Hey there.
I want to automate some tasks and I need to update a pate and tag certain users.
I can mention them with their accountId, as far, as I understand, but I need to somehow get these only from their Display name or email address.
Is there a solution for this?
Hi @Luka Simon Thies Welcome to the community!
You may try below:

You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.

Thank you, this works for the email.
Would this also work when I only have a Display name for example?
I tried it with "firstname%20lastname" and with "firstname+lastname", but that returns all users that have either of those in their name.

Unfortunately, this behavior makes it difficult to retrieve a specific user if multiple users share parts of the name. There isn't a built-in way to force an exact match using this endpoint.

Okay, then I'll have to get around that somehow.
But thank you for your help.
