Get custom fields from linked issues with Jira API

[Markus Rösner]

Hello,

I am reading issues (Epics) and their fields from the JIRA API.

Additionally, I get linked Issues (Themes which are linked - "implements") from the Epics.
(from the API field Issuelinks).

Now I can read the issue id, key and some fields (summary, status, priority, issuetype) from the linked issues.

My problem is: I need to get custom fields from the linked issue (which are not available).

Is there a way I can access them only with reading the epics? What can I do?

Best Regards,

Markus

Hello @Markus Rösner 

As per the REST API you get only basic system fields of the linkedIssue hence the only way it seems possible is to iterate over the list of linkedIssue and do a REST call for each one of them and in that rest call just fetch the desired custom field value of the LinkedIssue.
