How do I mention an issue's reporter or assignee?

[arthur_conde]

When adding a comment to an issue in Jira, is there a macro or shortcut that will automatically be replaced with the respective @mention? 

For example, if I wanted to mention an issue's reporter in a comment on that issue, how do I do that without looking up the reporter and typing their name?

Hi @arthur_conde,

If you use Jira automation for your purposes, then the following will work:

[~accountId:{{issue.assignee.accountId}}]

[~accountId:{{issue.reporter.accountId}}]

Thanks,

Helen

Are you trying to do this manually or via automation? Knowing this will help to direct our answers in a manner that is most likely to resolve your question.

@Collista Lewingdon I am doing this manually. Is it possible? All other solutions I found were for automation.

I have not found a way to do this manually.
