issueId: The ID of the external issue you want to link with the Test Case.

objectType: By default, this should always be "TEST_CASE" for linking a test case.
objectId: The Test Case ID that you wish to link.
- To get the objectId in TestOps, navigate to your project, go to Tests > Test Cases, then open the Test Case you want to link and copy the ID from the URL.
