We have an external application (it is a Liferay based application) running on a different server from our jira instance. Both servers are connected into my companies intranet. I tried creating an Application link in jira for this application on the other server, and I was confused as to how to set this up. Also this is the code we are are using in our application to create the issue. Does this look like it will work we are not entirely sure just from looking at the online documentation and the Jira API. The code is in the attached file: Jira_Issue_Creation_Link_Function.txt (Jira_Issue_Creation_Link_Function.txt)
