Learn how to manage notifications for @mentions in Zendesk by creating custom triggers.

How can I manage notifications for @mentions in Zendesk?

To manage notifications for @mentions, you can create triggers to customize who gets notified.

By default, mentioned agents receive email notifications and see a notification in the Zendesk interface. If you want to limit notifications, consider setting up a trigger that only notifies specific users, like the requester or assignee, and excludes CC'd users. This way, you can control the flow of notifications based on your team's needs.
