Hello,  
I am using Elastic Cloud and I was trying to set up a Watcher to send a pdf (generated from a dashboard) via email. I have some questions:

- can I create a watcher who, every 7 days, automatically sends this report to an email address?
- if so, where do I set the SMTP server?

Thank you

Does [Enable Watcher | Elasticsearch Service Documentation | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-watcher.html) help with this?

No, because in Elastic, Cloud version, is not possible to set a custom SMTP server...
