Creating User Story and Tasks in Tandem with Confiforms IFTTT Macro

[Jason Walsh]

Likely an easy fix but I can't seem to find documentation explaining how to do this. 

Essentially I can create An IFTTT macro creating a JIRA ticket as an "Epic" and subsequently create a "Story" using the JIRA key created from the "Epic" as the field value for the custom data field tied to "Epic Link".

I can do the same thing to create a "Story" and then create a sub-task using the JIRA key value for the "parent" value in my JSON script.

What I can't seem to figure out is how to create a "Story" and then create a "Task" that is tied to that story automatically in a separate IFTTT macro following the Story created IFTTT macro. 

Can this be done? Is there a property like "parent" I can use to link the JIRA key to?

Hi

This is really a question about Atlassian Jira REST API and how to create a task as a sub-task for the story.

ConfiForms here is just a "worker"...

How could I have missed this link? As per usual you have the answers. I got it working off of this URL, thanks Alex!
