Greetings,

I would like to add an issue link on incoming script execution by the following flow:

1. check whether such link is already added to the issue
2. if not - add the link as string value

Could someone please advise on how to implement this in incoming script?

Hi Alex,

To provide more context could you specify which issue trackers you will be using?

Cheers,
