Support plain-text @mentions using raw user ID formatting for MS Teams
When posting to the Slack from Smartsheet automation, it is possible to use <@{Slack_ID}> format in a plain-text message to mention either users or channels through a Slack app or webhook with appropriate permissions, Slack recognizes the ID and turns it into a true @mention . This works because Slack allows plain-text message formatting that includes raw user ID strings and interprets them correctly when sent through authorized apps or integrations.
In contrary to Slack, Teams requires a structured message format using its API, and now user mentions are not triggered in Teams channels through Smartsheet automation. It is necessary to develop and implement the same capability for mentioning members and channels in MS Teams using native "Alert Someone → Send to Microsoft Teams" Smartsheet automation.

My son is getting ready to start college this fall (August) at USF (go Bulls!). Luckily he secured a couple scholarships that will cover his tuition and fees for his 4 years. However, for his first year he'll be staying on campus in a dorm. There is not enough scholarship money for that.
My goal is to allow him to remain debt-free. I'll do everything I can to pay for housing and meals for this first year of college, so when he is finished he will be debt-free and able to focus on his career and such.

Re: Why i am getting one combined email when adding multiple entries in a form
I would also LOVE to turn off the bundled option as well so that the automations will send out individual emails.

Re: Why i am getting one combined email when adding multiple entries in a form
I am having the same/a similar issue w/a workflow automation alert that is combining multiple alerts into a single email. Each of the alerts are set up to have a unique/custom Subject (with fields referenced to make them unique/dynamic), however I am receiving a single bundled alert. These email alerts need to be sent individually, as we are using them for audit purposes. Is there a setting I can change to ensure each alert is sent independently?
See attached.

Re: Adding Images in Form Body and Descriptions
It would be very helpful to be able to add photos to the form.

Re: Adding Images in Form Body and Descriptions
This feature is very much needed in order to prevent having to use a different system to collate the information needed because images are needed. Please please please make this a priority! :)

This year, I set two big goals: getting better at balancing work and life by 1. focusing on my health and spending more quality time with my family—and 2. leveling up my skills to become an expert in my field. Honestly, some days I’m a health guru who actually drinks water and takes a walk, and other days I’m a professional snack enthusiast glued to my desk.
Finding balance is a work in progress! Meanwhile, I’m diving into learning new things and trying not to feel overwhelmed by how much there is to know. It’s a juggling act.
Lots of readjusting happening and grace through the chaos of life and for not doing what I wish I wanted but at least doing something a little better.
