Hey @krisnapy, I was able to to reproduce this issue with our SDK. It is primarily due to regex that we have for the mentioned users:

  const regEx = new RegExp(`^\\B(${mentionedUsers})`, 'g');

Eg:

/^\B(@vishal|@vishal 2|@Vishal Narkhede)/g

This doesn't take space and numbers in the usernames. We will try to look into it and fix the regex once we find a solution.
