Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out how I can @-mention a user via the Chatter API.. none of the following seem to work:

• mentioning @[Steve Winton] # user's name in square brackets
• mentioning @(Steve Winton) # user's name in round brackets
• mentioning @"Steve Winton" # user's name in quotes
• mentioning @{005E0000000Fpox} # user's ID in curly braces
• mentioning @005E0000000Fpox # user's ID without curly braces

Is there a specific convention for this I should follow?

Many thanks,

Steve

Hi all,

Thought I should announce here that I've written a Python library for the Chatter API, and released it under an MIT license:

https://github.com/nixmc/chatter/

It's heavily influenced by the awesome Python Twitter Tools library, which is a proven and robust library for the Twitter API. You can find more details on the Github page.

I hope others find this work useful, hit me up (@stevewinton on Twitter) with any questions or feedback.

Best,

Steve
