How to link a defect to a User Story when using the Adaptivist?

[Lornette Palmer-Rhoden]

I am new to the use of Adaptivist, however, we are having a challenge linking a defect to a user story that will then be shown in the backlog

I don't know how you want to do it (how your process will work) but here is how you can link between issues :

def link = post('/rest/api/2/issueLink')        
    .header('Content-Type', 'application/json')        
    .body([            
         type: [ name: "Resolves" ],    //The link name    
         outwardIssue: [ id: issueId ],  // This is the issue that the link 'starts' at
         inwardIssue: [ key:  secondIssueKey ]  // You'll need to specify an issue ID or key here        
])        
.asString()
assert link.status == 201

Please notice to change the link type- name to the relevant link name, issueId and the secondIssueKey params to the releavent issues.
