Delivery Tickets in API Response

[Levi Palmer]

I'm trying to analyze the size of our JPD ideas in terms of story points broken down by team using the API. When I call the API for a JPD Idea, the fields for Delivery Status and Delivery progress come back as null or not at all. This makes it impossible to link out to our delivery tickets in subsequent. 

Is there not a way to pull back the delivery tickets using the API? Or is there another way to do this? When I download a CSV of a JPD view that includes the delivery fields, the csv only includes a count of the tickets by status, but not the keys/ids of the related tickets.

Hi Levi, to get the list of delivery tickets, you need to get the list of linked issues (that's how it's stored). They are linked using a specific issue link type.

Thanks @Tanguy Crusson that works! After playing with the API results, I was able to pull them by looking for linked issues with the link type "Polaris issue link." Not sure what that means exactly, but it seems to be the unique link type for JPD <> Jira Delivery tickets, since I wanted to make sure I only use delivery tickets in my code and not pull in other kinds of linked tickets.

Awesome. Yes that's the name of the link type (very obscure - back from when JPD was called "Polaris" - we need to clean that up at some point)
