How to mention a user?

Hi, I need to mention a user using the format <@ABC123> which work on blockit but I cant get it to work on jsx… may I ask how it can be done?

block kit sample:

{
  "type": "section",
  "text": {
    "type": "mrkdwn",
    "text": "Approvers:\nRelease Management Team: Approved by <@WJNQ0AL9L>"
    "verbatim": true
  }
},

Thanks!

@leoyli-headsup jsx-slack components are basically based on Block Kit and I’m not thinking to add the alias component for mrkdwn syntaxes. But if you want, it’s very easy to define aliases by user side as same as React.

const Link = ({ children, href }) => <a href={href}>{children}</a>
const Mention = ({ id }) => <a href={`@${id}`} />

console.log(
  <Blocks>
    <Section>
      <Mention id="U0123456789" /> <Link href="https://example.com">Link</Link>
    </Section>
  </Blocks>
)

[
  {
    type: 'section',
    text: {
      type: 'mrkdwn',
      text: '<@U0123456789> <https://example.com|Link>',
      verbatim: true
    }
  }
]

@deepansh946 Did you read the Slack’s article I’ve shared? Slack has phased out mention through user names, and now you can no longer mention without user ID. You should always use user ID to mention through Slack apps.
