Click on the Discuss button in the navigation pane at the top or at the bottom of the ticket and @mention your teammate to invite them to the discussion. You can also invite more than one teammate to the discussion.
Highlight a portion for better context
Invite a teammate to a discussion by highlighting a part of the ticket and clicking on Discuss (the button shows up when you highlight text). This gives your teammate better context.
