Examples:
Key IN salesforceIssues() will return all issues with at least 1 related case
Key IN salesforceIssues(“50000000234AAB”) will return Issues related to Case ID 50000000234AAB
Key IN salesforceIssues(“00003071”) will return Issues related to Case Number 00003071

#linktojira allows linking of the Case to one or more JIRA Issues directly from Case feed

#linktojira #KEY-01 #Key-56
