How to use @mention in facts in a Teams MessageCard ?

Question

Hi,

As the example below, given by Microsoft at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/webhooks-and-connectors/how-to/connectors-using?tabs=cURL, I would like to reuse this exact same MessageCard with the "table" part ("facts" in code) and implement a user mention instead of "Unassigned".

I can create two cards, one with a simple mention Like "Hi @User", and another with a table, but I can't fuse them together, the code structures aren't really the same.

You can add @mentions within an Adaptive Card body for bots and message extension responses. like below-
If you want to use FactSet please refer the below sample-
