Systemctl reboot boot loader entry option not working

Hi All,

I'm currently on an arch/windows dual boot, and I'm trying to find a convienient way to reboot into windows directly from Arch Linux. In the systemd boot arch wiki, I stumbled upon the boot-loader-entry option, so I tried it with the 'auto windows' entry:

[ahad@ahad-pc ~]$ systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=auto-windows
Cannot set boot into loader entry 'auto-windows': Invalid argument

I know for sure that 'auto-windows' exists, because when the boot entry shows up when I pass 'help' as an argument:

[ahad@ahad-pc ~]$ systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=help
arch.conf
auto-windows
auto-reboot-to-firmware-setup

After extensive googling, I haven't been able to find any bug reports or solutions to this problem. I would gladly appreciate any help in this regard.

Best,
