There is no mention on the documentation on whether this is even possible but other platforms such as Slack allow you to mention other users using their API. For example in Slack you write a message like this: Hello, <@U12345678>! and the user is mentioned. I tried different potential formats but to no avail. Is there any way to mention a user in a comment created using the API or can it be added in the future?
Solved
User mentions in REST API POST comments

@Mijin_Kim It is actually possible by passing an array the same way the web client does it. Make a comment with someone tagged on the web client and see the structure of the payload of the request and it works the same for the API as well but it is not documented.
