Slack conversation: https://expensify.slack.com/archives/C07HPDRELLD/p1725028109496029 (Internal)

Action Performed:

1. Sign-up on NewDot with a new account
2. Choose an onboarding intent (i.e "Get paid back by my employer")
3. Complete the onboarding steps
4. Navigate to the Concierge DM to view the onboarding tasks created

Actual Result:

Assigned tasks include a mention of the assigned user in the task preview, but it makes it very difficult to avoid navigating to the assigned user's profile when clicking the task.

Expected Result:

This is working as expected, but we want to change all assigned task previews to:

• Not include a mention
• Use only the avatar of the assigned user instead
• Clicking on the task preview row (incl. the avatar) will navigate to the task, not the profile.

Workaround:

Can the user still use Expensify without this being fixed? Have you informed them of the workaround?
Yes, click the right caret.

Also just for added clarity: this should be a global change to all tasks (not just the onboarding tasks).

[trjExpensify]

Yep, all tasks!

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Show assignee avatar instead of the email for task preview.

What is the root cause of that problem?

New redesign.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

In TaskPreview,

1. Get the assignee avatar

const [assigneeAvatar] = useOnyx(ONYXKEYS.PERSONAL_DETAILS_LIST, {selector: personalDetails => personalDetails?.[taskAssigneeAccountID]?.avatar});

2. Replace the assignee mention with the avatar + task title
   

   App/src/components/ReportActionItem/TaskPreview.tsx

   Line 113 in e60b821

   <RenderHTML html={isTaskCompleted ? `<completed-task>${htmlForTaskPreview}</completed-task>` : htmlForTaskPreview} />

{taskAssigneeAccountID > 0 && <Avatar
    containerStyles={[styles.mr2, styles.taskCheckboxWrapper]}
    source={assigneeAvatar}
    size={CONST.AVATAR_SIZE.SUBSCRIPT}
    avatarID={taskAssigneeAccountID}
    type={CONST.ICON_TYPE_AVATAR}
/>}
<Text style={styles.flex1}>{taskTitle}</Text>
