Atlassian user mentioned in Jira work item

The Teamwork Graph API is available through Forge's Preview release phase.

Preview features are available to all users and receive the same level of support as generally available features. Schemas, fields, and behavior may still change before general availability (GA), and breaking changes are subject to a minimum 1-month deprecation notice, announced in the Teamwork Graph changelog.

To review the current limitations, see Limitations and considerations.

To share feedback or report an issue, visit the Atlassian developer community.

A relationship type representing a user being tagged in the description of a Jira work item as a mention. This does not include mentions if the user mentions themselves as there won't be streamhub events for that. Note that there is no reliable way to determine if a user was removed from mentions hence once a relationship is created it will not be deleted unless the issue or user is deleted.

Relationship type: Canonical

Cypher

We recommend sending parameterized Cypher queries as below instead of embedding the parameters directly in the query string. This approach will help ensure better performance.
