Webhook needs to support forced notification a la "@channel", "@team", "@person"
Webhooks should have a property to force notification a la "@channel", "@team", "@person". I have been using Slack webhooks for notifications out of our monitoring platform and can use "@" tags to make sure that the correct channels get the data and if the condition is severe, notify "@channel".

We’ve added this to the backlog. Please check back here for updates on this feature request.

this may surely take another couple of years just to change the status to 'in progress' =)

If you offer the webhook or email to channel connectors it makes logical sense to dynamic @mentions.
There must be some issues why this has not been implemented yet. Are these issues technical, perhaps security based? Some further elaboration would be respectful for your users.

Hello, As others have mentioned previously, this is an existing feature for most of the other chat based applications and an integral feature of automated messages for our company. Can you please provide an ETA on this?

This is critical! This feature could simplify and modernize the alerting from our Network Management Software. But without being able to tag in webhook messages, it will basically be useless for it. I can't believe this has gone ignored for so long. Please move this feature up and implement it, It is long over due!

There is a small hack to this request that I have working for my staff. I have a small team of 4 Sr. Engineers. I have created a private channel for each of them and configured the webhook connector for each of their channels. In Project Automation within Jira I have created a If/Else conditional job that based on issue.assignment will send the message to Teams and to their unique channel. Which, as long as they have their notifications configured correctly, notifies them. It takes a bit of time for the initial setup but definitely works great... and better than waiting for MS to release the DM option.

I am not interested any further. This is not what "future communication" feels like, sorry.

Just started development using incoming webhook to Teams and noticed this was a limitation. Hoping Microsoft gets eyes on this soon. Thank you all.

I see it's finally in the backlog but really? Over four years since the original request? And for a feature that's near ubiquitous in similar products? Speculating, maybe someone(s) on the dev team are dragging their feet cuz their work-life balance is out of whack and adding this feature would be an acquiescence to their digital overlords?
