JIRA Cloud REST API: add remote link when create an Issue

Eugene Bezludny

Hello, Community!

Is there any way to do not make a separate API call if I need to add remote link to my Issue (when I create it) via API? 

I need to create an Issue and add remote link to additional information about that issue on another Issue tracking system.

I know I can do this: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueIdOrKey-remotelink-post

But I'd prefer to avoid second API call especially for remote link creation. 

I've checked available fields for Issue creation:
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/#api-rest-api-3-issue-post but did not find any related fields to remote links. 

Is that possible? 
Thanks a lot!
