Did something change on the PIE? Now, when you @name someone in the PIE, you can see the underlying email addresses for each listed person.

    Thanks for letting us know @Mike.B.559, and apologies for the inconvenience.

    @Stefanie.B.518 I thought I'd bring this to your attention.

    No worries Ricardo. No inconvenience…just surprising.

    Hi @Mike.B.559
    I'm very sorry for the delay in getting back to you here.

    We’ve checked with the product team from this third party tool; they’ve confirmed that nothing has changed, and this has always been the case with their service.

    They have also confirmed that this feature cannot be disabled at this time, and we’ll continue to work with them to see if this can be changed.  Note, because this is a third party tool, it doesn’t carry over any settings or preferences from Community. 

    Please see the section entitled “Links to Third-Party Web Sites” in the D2L.com Company Website – Terms of Use for further information, as these terms apply to Community.

    Hi @Mike.B.559
    Just wanted to offer an update that yesterday afternoon the team was able to make an edit to the display of names and emails in the tagging feature of PIE.

    Now, when members tag others in the Product Idea Exchange they'll only see names- never email addresses.

    Grateful to you for being in touch about this.
