Email Issue Watchers in Automation

Is there a way to email the users who are watching an issue when sending an email via Jira Automation?

I can send to the Reporter, Assignee or user fields on the issue but can't see an option for the Watchers of an issue.

This would be really useful functionality.

You should be able to add this in the email TO section:

{{issue.watchers.emailAddress}}

More information on smart values can be found here:

Brilliant - thanks.

Didn't realise I could put Smart Values in the email to and cc boxes.
