We used the following SIL data source:

Code Block
string [] issues = selectIssues("created < now()");
string [] res;
for (string iss in issues) {
    if (contains(iss.summary, argv["query"])) {
    	res = addElementIfNotExist(res, iss);
    }
}
return res;

The select script used is:

Code Block
KPOption[] selectedOption = customfield_12209;
linkIssue(key, selectedOption[0].value, "Relates");

It This creates a link of the "Relates" type link between the current issue and the selected issue.
