 ## Search by a user that's involved in a discussion
 
 You can use the `involves` qualifier to find discussions that involve a certain user. The qualifier returns discussions that were either created by a certain user, mention the user, or contain comments by the user. The `involves` qualifier is a logical OR between the `author`, `mentions`, and `commenter` qualifiers for a single user.
