Pulling @mentioned from Azure
Hi Folks,
I'm wondering if there is a way to pull work items from Azure DevOps in which the user has been mentioned in the work item discussion. I can't see amy fields for this in the analytics view. Are there any particular work arounds you are aware of?
Thanks
Hi Anonymous I think you could use Rest API
Fetch the discussion comments of work items using the Azure DevOps REST API.
Parse the comments to look for @mentions of the user

Thanks In AdvanceHi Anonymous,
Thank you for raising your concern. We really apologize for the inconvenience caused. After reviewing the details you provided, please follow the steps below, which might resolve the issue.
In Azure DevOps, you can create custom queries to filter work items based on specific criteria. While there isn't a direct field for @mentions, you can utilize the "Assigned To" or "Created By" fields along with other filters to refine the work items.
