Introduce Link That Automatically Adds a User to a Thread

[aasmart]

Description

• A link, similar to the current thread/channel link, that once clicked by the user will add them to the linked thread. This can be triggered by buttons (such as a "Join the Conversation" button), hyperlinks, or any other linking method

Why This is Needed

• It can be used for members to quickly and easily join threads without the need of pinging them and cut down that extra click to easily join the conversation occurring in a thread.

Alternatives Considered

• Simply pinging users adds them to a thread, so this can be triggered once a button is clicked with a thread link then a ping that adds them but this feels cumbersome compared to a simple link.

Additional Details

• None.
