Link Epic to existing issue via REST-API v2

Hello together,

how is it possible to create an epic-link to an existing issue via REST-Api.
Didn’t find any informaton about it not older than 2 years.

Maybe someone has a clue.

Thank you.

Hello @Tobias1

To link an existing Story to an Epic, you set the value of the field ‘Epic Link’ in that Story to the ID of the Epic.
