Set a group as a watcher

Question

I'd like to set a group of people to watch a particular page without having to manually enter each name separately. Can this be done? When I click "Manage Watchers" on a page, it does not accept the Group names, only individuals.

Hello @Margaret Hassall ,

I'm sorry, Confluence will not accept the groups for watching the Page.

Please check the below workaround. but Atlassian will not support like this operations.
