related issues

I am struggeling to get some specific relation.

Set-up: two different jira instances ( I think they are self hosted on a server)

What I want: get all the links of a ticket in one of the instances, there are also links between the two different jira instances

I tried to get the information via the  linkedIssues, but only the tickets in the same jira instance appear. (I tried much more, but actually I am not getting to a solution).

Does anyone had a similar issue and had a nice solution?

Hi @Olga Drewitz

welcome to the Atlassian Community.

Am I assuming correct that you're trying to get all the links of a ticket via the REST API?

If yes, you'd not only need to look at the linkedIssues. These will only contain links to issues inside this Jira instance.

To get links to other Jira or Confluence instances or simply web pages, you'd need to have a look at the remote links with a GET call to /rest/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/remotelink.

Does this help?

Cheers,
Matthias.

Hi @Matthias Gaiser _K15t_ ,

thank you for the quick response. It helped me to understand my problem. I am actually using Python, but it has the same functionality.

Cheers,

Olga

Great to read that, Olga.

That is right, I haven't realized that and will do it the next time :-)
