Using nicknames helps you search for or mention people in task comments or Docs without having to type their full names.
How to Add or Edit a Nickname
Nicknames can be set up by any user. Here’s how:
Access Your Profile:
Head over to your profile screen by clicking on your avatar in the upper right.
With your profile screen open, select the three-dot menu and choose Add nickname.
Assign or Edit a Nickname:
A popup window will appear where you can assign a new nickname or edit an existing one.
Enter the desired name and select Update nickname to save the changes.
To edit an existing nickname, click Edit nickname in the same place.
The added nickname will be visible on the user profile and is also clickable, allowing you to edit it directly from there.
