'@' mentions for users does not work

[integrii]

Describe the bug When I use @user.name, it comes out as plain text in the JIRA UI. When I fetch an issue with an At mentioned member, I see the user prefixed with /~, However when I try to also put in /~user.name it comes out as plain text in the UI and \/~user.name in my jira-cli.

Please provide following details

1. JiraCLI Version:

(Version="v1.0.0", GitCommit="", CommitDate="", GoVersion="go1.18.3", Compiler="gc", Platform="darwin/arm64")

2. Are you using Jira cloud or on-premise jira server? Also mention the version for on-premise installation.

v8.13.20#813020

3. What operating system are you using? Also mention version.

macOS Montery 12.4

4. What terminal are you using? Also mention version.

MacOS Terminal w/ `zsh`

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. jira issue create
2. try to @user.name` mention someone in the description or comments
3. notice that the user is not @ mentioned and the @user.name is plain text

Expected behavior @ mention binds to a user and notifies them as in the JIRA UI.

Hi @integrii, on-premises installation use jira api v2 and it expects the data in this format [~displayname]. For example, the input below should render fine in Jira UI.

Please reach out to [~ankit] for clarification!

Note that you'll need to use display name if its available. If you are unsure about the display name you can check it from jira issue assign command. The string inside the parenthesis ( is a display name.

But yeah there seem to be some problem with escaping, I will check that. However tagging a user should work for valid input.

Hello. I'm having the same issue. I'm not sure if it's because the username has spaces. I've tried two versions of this (with quotes and without) and still no luck. (This is a cloud Jira installation btw)

Here's my version info: (Version="1.1.0", GitCommit="3b93e147eac468ad985bdece27469153b4bb2814", CommitDate="2022-08-14T08:10:40+00:00", GoVersion="go1.18.3", Compiler="gc", Platform="linux/amd64")

Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!

I tried to put [~displayname] into a comment, but it is turned into \[](\~displayname\) when I view it via "jira issue view". On the web page, it is displayed as \[\~displayname\] when viewed as text.

It seems markdown is not working in the comments. It can work with the following change:

I have the same problem !

1 - Jira issue assign does not show the user name, only the full display name 2 - Sending [~full display name] It appears literally like this in Jira

I'm missing something ?
