ScriptRunner (Groovy Script) to create remote link for an issue

I am trying to create remote web link using Groovy Script via ScriptRunner with the following:

post("/rest/api/3/issue/${issue}/remotelink")

.header('Content-Type','application-json')

.body(
[
title: 'weblink',
url: 'https://a.b.com/'

])

.asString().body

But nothing happens, when I look at the Script Runner log, I saw the following:

2022-08-16 13:48:51.115 INFO - POST /rest/api/3/issue/JIRATEST2-225/remotelink asString Request Duration: 254ms
2022-08-16 13:48:51.116 WARN - POST request to /rest/api/3/issue/JIRATEST2-225/remotelink returned an error code: status: 400 - Bad Request
body: 









<html>

<head>
    <title>Bad Request (400)</title>
    





<!--[if IE]><![endif]-->
<script type="text/javascript" >
    var contextPath = '';
    var DeferScripts = { deferState: 'disabled' };
</script>

Why it is a bad request and POST body is empty?

Looking at the documentation of the REST API end-point you're trying to call, it seems to me that your request body contains only 2 fields, but the end-points expects much more details.

See: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-remote-links/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-remotelink-post

When I use RestAPI tool (postman) to call the Jira Cloud API directly, i was able to create the remote link correctly with the following body

{
"object": {
"title": "TestTitle",
"url": "https://a.b.com"
}
}

The API endpoint is: https://xxx.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/{issueId}/remotelink
