How can I automate emails to users within an object

[Dan Schlain]

We have objects that contain users (some have multiple users) within our assets schema trees. We need an automation to send out an email to each user within these objects when a field value change is triggered. The basic logic of the automation is fine and should work but we are getting an error stating that the "To:" field of the "send email" action is blank.

The "To:" field currently contains: {{groupMembers.email}}

How can we make this work? Is there a smart value that will target user email addresses that are contained in an object?

@Dan Schlain , welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What you need to do is.

- Add a advanced branch in your automation rule and for smartvalue add your current smartvalue. I'm assuming your smartvalue is your object field with the attribute email.

- You will need to give a name for your advanced branch, you can call users or whatever.

- In your automation rule to send email in to space, add your variable {{users}}

Basically the use of smartvalue within an advanced branch is a 'for each'.

So for each email found in your object attribute, you will be sending your communication.

Your rule should be like this:

Hope this helps you

Thanks Fernando, that worked! We had the same logic but it was the ".Email" we had wrong and were referencing the wrong variable in the action.
