Create a work item page

POST/api/v2/workspaces/{slug}/projects/{project_id}/work-items/{work_item_id}/pages/

Link a page to a work item. The call returns 201 with the new link. If you plan to remove the link later, keep its id. Delete a work item page takes the link id, not the page id.

You can link any page in the workspace: a page in this project, a page in another project, or a workspace (wiki) page. Each page links to a work item at most once, so linking the same page again returns 409 conflict.

Linking a page adds an entry to the work item's activity. It doesn't change the page.

Path Parameters

slug:requiredstring

The workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.

project_id:requiredstring

The work item's project. Accepts the project UUID or its bare identifier, for example ENG.

work_item_id:requiredstring

The work item to link the page to. Accepts the work item UUID or its ENG-123 identifier.

Body Parameters

page_id:requiredstring (uuid)

The page to link. It must be a page in this workspace. A page id from another workspace, or one that doesn't exist, returns 400 with an errors entry for page_id.

Response shaping

fields:optionalstring

Comma-separated list of fields to return. Unrequested keys are omitted from the response, not returned as null, so absent means "not requested" and null means "actually null". id always comes back whether or not you name it.

Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400 that lists the valid set and suggests the closest match, so a typo can't silently cost you the saving.

Requestable here: created_at, created_by_id, id, page_id, project_id, updated_at, updated_by_id, work_item_id.

See Sparse fields.

expand:optionalstring

Comma-separated relations to embed alongside the ids: page (the linked page, with id, name, access, is_locked, and archived_at).

Expansion is separate-key: ?expand=page keeps page_id and adds a page object next to it. An unknown value is a 400. See Expanding relations.
