Why is issuelinks field empty when linked issue is to a Confluence Wiki page?

[jvanacore]

I'm trying to get the issuelinks of all Confluence Wiki pages that have been linked to a particular issue.

I am querying a json response using the REST API in Chrome browser with:

https://companyname.com/rest/api/2/search?startAt=0&maxResults=50&jql=key={issueID}

But I am receiving an empty issuelinks field.

issuelink: []

The Jira issue in question has a link to a Confluence Wiki:

I have also tried the remotelink query from the API documentation

https://companyname.com/rest/api/2/issue/{issueID}/remotelink

but I am not getting the correct response.

Thanks

The issue links resource will only represent links between issues (i.e. issue1 is linked to issue2).  The remote issue links resource should work for this.  Have you verified that you have the correct permissions and that issue linking is active.
