List of mentions

[Alison Torres]

Hi everyone, is there a way that I can get a list of all the pages and comments where I have been mentioned? Often people don't tag me in a task, but ask a question or request an action in a comment instead, so it doesn't show up in my task list. Thank you!

Nope, doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for following up. We have an open feature request for finding mentions in comments:

• CONFCLOUD-71883 List of all the pages where a user is mentioned with @Name in comments

In the meantime, I'm not aware of any workaround to solve this. Since I know this wasn't the answer you were hoping for, my apologies. I hope we can see this feature in the future.

Thank you for your understanding.

haha, see this feature in the future, nice one Atlassian :) You guys just removed it..

I managed to get the results by searching for your mention-id. (can be found via the inspector)

Hi Thomas, can you explain how did you get this information?

@Josué A. Lovaton H. 

Open up a page where the user is mentioned, go to the source code (with F12 usually or simple right click) and inspect it. Here you can find the data-mention-id and you can search for it!

Thanks a lot for the tips.

Best!

Hi @Nicholas Mariette and @Alison Torres 

This is a common challenge when mentions are used for questions or action requests that don’t automatically generate tasks. Unfortunately, Confluence does not have a built-in, dedicated list feature for all your mentions across pages and comments.

However, you could consider try out Mentions Dashboard for Jira (right not it is available for Jira Cloud but we are developing solution for Confluence). Dashboard  streamline the process, ensuring you don't miss any important mentions or action items. the cracks.                               

Also with add-on you can reply and follow up on mentions directly from the dashboard, so you can efficiently address questions or requests and keep everyone in the loop.

Add-on newly released and developed by my team. 
I hope this helps!

I discovered the previously mentioned workaround doesn't work for me anymore. There's no "data-mention-id" on a page where I'm mentioned. 

Solution: I found that doing a search for the text in the data-username field works for me. (you still need to inspect the page source to find this).
