@username
To get the attention of a friend, peer, or colleague in a specific channel, type @
followed by their username, for example: @username
. The mentioned user sees the channel name bolded or is notified via email or their mobile device if they're not online.
@here
You can also notify everyone in a channel who is online by typing @here
. This command sends every active user online a DM to go along with the notification. @here's are great for spontaneous questions and bringing in everyone online to one place.
@all
You can also notify everyone in a channel by typing @all
. This command sends everyone in the channel an email to go along with the Community message. We recommend using @all
sparingly.
Although notifying everyone in the channel is useful for announcements, gathering information, or office hours, not every message requires this.
