Tag @person to notify in MDA

#mention, #Model-drivenApp, #Activity

How are you, my friend?

Today, I would like to share the great functionality that I looked forward to many many years ago.

Nowadays, I looking at the Power Platform Admin center and found the new update from Microsoft as below and I have tried to enable it.

Enable @metion functionality

Firstly, make sure that you have selected the Release channel = "Monthly channel" for the Model-driven app in the Behavior setting. This functionality just used only in the Note on Timeline area.

Enable @mention feature

Path: Environments > [select an environment] > Settings > Product > Collaboration.

Enable In-app Notification functionality

Now, before trying this functionality I had enabled the In-app Notification of my MDA as below.

Enable In-App notification

Trying now...

Check on the Account form, and create the Note to mention the person for requesting updated Account information.

Firstly, On user System Admin, I open the specific Account record and then create a Note to mention user "Alans Steiner"

Using "@" + "First name" to mention ther person

After that, log in to the system with the user "Alans Steiner" - this user will receive the In-App Notification from the System Admin user.

In-app notification sent to mentioned person

... so cool! Try from your side. 🎉
