Hi,

Currently I’m syncing an issue link by the following scripts

**Outgoing**

```auto
replica.customKeys.issueLinks = issue.issueLinks.collect{ baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key}

```

**Incoming**

```auto
issue.customFields."ServiceDesk ID".value = replica.customKeys.issueLinks.join(",")

```

This works like a charm (in case of 1 issue link), however I’m not sure how to change this for the use case where I have multiple and different issue links.

Now the result on the remote site is like this:

**Custom field** :

“[https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1,https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2](https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1,https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2)”

I would to have something like this

**Custom field** :

“[https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1](https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1,https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2) (is caused by)”, [https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2](https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-1,https://someurl1/browse/ISSUEKEY-2) (relates to)

Ideas anyone? Thanks!

Hi Berry, could you try:

Outgoing:

```auto
replica.customKeys.issueLinks = issue.issueLinks
.collect{
 baseUrl + im.getIssueObject(it.otherIssueId as Long).key + "("+it.linkName+")"
}

```

The incoming is good as it is. Maybe you can leave a space between comas:

```auto
issue.customFields."ServiceDesk ID".value = replica.customKeys.issueLinks.join(", ")

```
