I have a fully implemented bot to perform some incident management for my group. We also use webhook 'bots' to post system status updates to the same room. I would like to have the webhook messages @mention the full bot to kick off an incident in certain circumstances. When I test @mentions from the webhook using my own user_id, it works fine. When I try to @mention the bot using what looks to me to be its user_id, it doesn't get translated to the bot's username and it doesn't trigger an event.
Is there some other user_id format that I need to use or is this simply not an available feature at this time?
I've found that this is by design and is currently marked as "won't fix"
I've submitted it as a feature request.
