Link issue during creation?

[Markus]

Is it possible to link an issue to another one while you are creating it? Linking to epics during creation works fine but i want to link it to another User Story. 

Is this possible during creation or only after you created the issue?

Hello @Markus

Your requirement is supported out of the box in Jira, in the "create screen" of the required issue type which add the field "Linked Issues" and then while creating the issue you can easily link the ticket to existing issues.

Thanks a 1000x times! This field was missing from our field screen but i spoke with our admin and now everything is working perfectly.

@MarkusYou  may try this  free add-on https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/ru.mail.jira.plugins.lf.queryfields

 Other ways 

• Is to  write your code using Script runner plugin/
• using  Jira Misc Workflow Extensions(plugin)  you  can  use a  post  function in  create transition  and then  add  "Link issues to the current issue"  define your JQL query  that  will  link  current issue  with issue from  JQL  Query.
