How I can add web link into jira issue

Question

I want to add a web link into jira issue.

I know to add a issue link with that :

issue = jira.issue(issue_source)
issue2 = jira.issue(issue_destination)
jira.create_issue_link('Duplicate', issue, issue2, None)

but I don't know to add web link,

Thanks

Links in Jira are between issues. You could perhaps create a custom field to store the link in?

I assume you are using some Python library. Which one is it that you are using?

I would advice to check their documentation and if it is not available either create a feature request or use a different library/implementation.

Hi, I don't know much about Python but I know this would be pretty easy to do in an add-on called Power Scripts. You could solve this with one line of code like this:

createWebLink(key, "http://www.google.com", "Super-duper search");

I know this was not the answer you were looking for but I thought an alternative solution would be better than no solution. :)
