Webex notifications

How could I add the notifier to the user with their username in the notification message?

eg : I want to add user in my message such that user will get the notification - "@abc - Please check this IP". How could I notify user abc?

This is my function:

def testFunction(token, room_id, message

#Notifier.send_report_email()

header = {"Authorization": "Bearer %s" % token,

"Content-Type": "application/json"}

data = {"roomId": room_id,

"markdown": "TEXT message for Test @All"}

return requests.post("https://api.ciscospark.com/v1/messages/", headers=header, data=json.dumps(data), verify=True)

I want to notify @All - all users through my bot message

You can @mention someone in your markdown message.

For example like this:
"Hi <@personEmail:banderson@example.com|Bobb>, please check this IP."

Or like this:
Hi <@personId:Y2lzY29zcGFyazovL3VzL1BFT1BMRS9mNWIzNjE4Ny1jOGRkLTQ3MjctOGIyZi1mOWM0NDdmMjkwNDY|Jose>, please check this IP."

You can use either personEmail or personID, whatever suits you best. Documentation for this is here; https://developer.webex.com/docs/basics#formatting-messages.
