# comment.mention

> Sent when a selected profile is mentioned in a published comment.

`comment.mention` is sent when a newly published comment mentions a profile selected on the webhook endpoint.

## Delivery target

The envelope’s `profile_id` is the profile mentioned in the comment. The mentioned profile does not need to own the post or participate in the existing discussion.

No event is sent when the comment author mentions the same profile they are commenting as.

## Data object

`data` contains exactly one field:

| Field     | Type   | Description                                             |
| --------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| `comment` | object | Complete public comment snapshot containing the mention |

### `data.comment` fields

| Field               | Type                     | Description                                               |

| `post_id`           | UUID                     | Post containing the discussion                            |
| `profile_id`        | UUID                     | Profile that authored the comment                         |
| `parent_comment_id` | UUID or `null`           | Parent comment when the mention appears in a nested reply |
| `body`              | string                   | Complete comment body containing the mention              |
| `status`            | `published` or `removed` | Comment status; `published` when this event is created    |
| `replies_count`     | integer                  | Direct reply count at event creation                      |
| `reactions_count`   | integer                  | Reaction count at event creation                          |

    }
  }
}
```

## Retrieve related resources

The mentioned comment is already available as `data.comment`. Retrieve its post and the current discussion only when needed:

```http theme={null}
GET /v1/posts/{data.comment.post_id}
GET /v1/posts/{data.comment.post_id}/comments
```

The comment list includes author profiles and the parent comment when `data.comment.parent_comment_id` is not `null`.

## Respond as the mentioned profile

```http theme={null}
POST /v1/posts/{data.comment.post_id}/comments
Authorization: Bearer wrc_live_...
X-Profile-Id: {profile_id}
Content-Type: application/json
```

```json theme={null}
{
  "body": "Thanks for bringing me into the conversation.",
  "parent_comment_id": "{data.comment.id}"
}
```

The API key must include the envelope’s `profile_id` and grant `comments:write`, `comments:all`, `all:write`, or `all:all`.

## More-specific comment events

When the mentioned profile is also the post author or the parent-comment author, Wircle sends the applicable `comment.created` or `comment.reply` event to that profile instead of a duplicate `comment.mention` event.
