API issue with epic link

Nick May May 13, 2015

We're having trouble using the REST API to link tasks to epics.

As part of the create issue POST request I set "customfield_XXXXX" which holds the epic link to the key of the task I want to link it to yet nothing appears once the issue is created.

I've also tried using the GreenHopper REST API, as detailed at https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AGILEKB/Set+the+%27Epic+Link%27+via+REST+call, to do this which returns a successful 204 response but again nothing is listed on the issue.

Is there anything else we need to do order to link the tasks?

Once I figured out I was not handling an empty response, it worked. In this case it's intended... not an error.
