Allow users to set webhooks to be triggered on mentions
Problem to solve
When a users gets a new mention, their workflow might allow for automation based on this trigger. Now only projects have hooks, but this feature is not available for users.
Intended users
All user personas could optimize their workflow.
Further details
This feature could later be extended to also have hooks for a new issue or merge request being assigned.
Proposal
Allow users to set a hook on their profile, being triggered when they get mentioned.
Permissions and Security
User can create, update, and delete their own hooks.
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
Hooks added scoped to users in the first few months. Maybe the ammount of Todo API calls that decrease as better and faster way is provided to get mention data.
