新機能：グループチャットで全員にメンション（1月下旬～2月下旬）

Similar to how users mention individuals in chat, users will now have the option for “Everyone” within their options for mentions. After typing @, users will see the same people results they see today, but a new option, “Everyone” will be available. By selecting Everyone and sending the message, a notification will be sent to all users in the group chat based on their selected notification settings. Users can adjust how they are notified within their Teams notification settings.

When this will happen:

We will begin rolling out in late January and expect to complete rollout to desktop, iOS and Android in late February 2023.

How this will affect your organization:

Users will now have a new type of mention within their group and meeting chats. This will automatically appear within chats with more than 2 users and any meeting chat. When used, recipients will receive a notification in their feed, which will show the user who has sent the message and that they have “mentioned Everyone”. These notifications can be disabled or changed via chat notification settings. If a user sends a message where they mention an individual and use “Everyone”, the prioritization will be given to the individual mention. 

In group chats with more than 50 users, we will alert the sender that their message will notify a large number of users. This ensures that senders are fully aware of what will happen when they send a message with Everyone tagged. 

What you need to do to prepare:

You may want to notify your users about this new mention type and give them awareness that they can adjust their preferences for notifications within the settings menu.
