Using REST API, how to create an Issue (EPIC) under another Issue (Feature) in an existing Structure

Question

My use case is to create issues and place them in an existing structure

I'm able to do this using GUI. (I create a Parent and then add the child)

How do I do this via REST API?

Any example/sample would help

Thanks,

Balaji

I've gone through the link and I've the following queries

a) I plan to place the child issue under the parent issue. How do I get the Issue rowID of the parent issue in the structure?

b) Whats the significance of pid

I created parent issue via REST POST method (but not in the structure). Then I manually pinned the issue to the structure. Then I moved the child issues under the parent. My query is how to achieve this (or equivalent) via Structure REST API.
