REST API does not return the email address of issue reporter

Question

I have a requirement where I need the Email address of the issue reporter, but the Rest API is just returning the account id. When fetching the info for that account id, it does not return the email address. I can get the email of the assignee.
Is there any way I could get the email of the reporter? I am using Jira Cloud and getting the issue like this:

https://test.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/FIM2-1

Is there any way I could get the reporter's email?

I want to send an email using the REST API to the Jira user. Is there any way I could achieve this without having the email id?

Thanks

Hi
Thanks for trying that out. Please assign someone else as a reporter and you will see the issue. By the way, I found some docs that mention that it is deprecated and is no longer supported but the apps that get permission from Atlassian team.

Thanks
