Set user status with integration "@mentions"

Stackoverflow'ers

I understand that the new "@mentions" is a very new feature for facebook, but can any of you think about how to access this feature using the Facebook API?

I would suggest that you need a separate call to get a list of available users / applications / ect ...

I'm just doing a brainstorming session, I understand that this is not yet possible. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

AFAIK, it is currently unavailable via facebook api.
( http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Users.setStatus )

However you can use the following use the following format for tags

tagging @[USERID:blah] in my message from a app

where USERID is the numeric name of the user to whom you want to mark the status, and blah is any string. you must specify a string there for it to work.

This format also works when you are trying to directly update the status on facebook. You can check it there.

Interacting with Per Colin (http://bugs.developers.facebook.net/show_bug.cgi?id=12947), it seems that the link of the third-party function is disabled for third-party applications. It will only display the tagged name of a friend in plain text without links and without notifications.
