Hi,

I would like to create a custom object using the REST API that has a relationship with the incident ID field. I am able to create custom objects that don't have a relationship but I'm having trouble figuring out how to represent the incident ID in the body of the request when there is a relationship. Attached image shows the details for a much-simplified version of the object I'm dealing with. 

When I try to represent the incident ID value with a simple int or string I get back a 400 error: " Invalid type specified for property SimpleThread.incidentID". When I GET a thread I receive a list of links for the incidentID field. I included the code showing what is returned below. I tried using something similar to represent the incident when I create the object but that also throws up errors.
