Create a new issue and write a comment with linked issue

[PollyH]

Hi,

I would like to create and link a new issue on a transition. So far this works pretty good. Now I want to write a comment to the original ticket with the link to the new created ticket, so that the customer on service desk can directly click on it

Any ideas?

Thanks

Polly

Hmm, i did some research and found the project where i got a solution. the problem for me: the solution was in sil and i need the solution for groovy. 

it was like:

string[] LINKED = linkedIssues(key);

addComment(Key, currentUser(), "My Comment" +LINKED(arraySize(LINKED)-1));

how can i translate this snipped to groovy?
