Create Issue with Asset Object using unique attribute value?

[Oliver Wemyss]

Is there any way to create a jira issue via rest API with an Assets Object using anything other that the object Key?

We have a unique Name on all objects and would like to use that to have the object on the issue. Is this at all possible?

Hi @Oliver Wemyss , 

in that situation you can do 2 step: 

1. Search via aql/iql

2. Get object 

3. Get key of object

4. Set into ticket

Cheers,
