Jerry,

There are a few places where things may be confusing. I've posted some
examples below which anyone can run using the admin/admin credentials.

From the Story side, we can see the relationship to Goals using the meta
API:
https://www14.v1host.com/v1sdktesting/meta.v1/Story?xsl=api.xsl

From the Goals side, the relationship is a little less clear:
https://www14.v1host.com/v1sdktesting/meta.v1/Story?xsl=api.xsl

You would have to know the hierarchy of assets: Story is a subtype of
PrimaryWorkitem is a subtype of Workitem

Now armed with the knowledge that it's there, we need to know how to ask
for it -- the default query does not return all attributes and
relationships. So you need to use the "sel=" parameter.

From the Story side, we can ask like this:
https://www14.v1host.com/v1sdktesting/rest-1.v1/Data/Story?sel=Name,N...
(Note: the above query uses the page parameter to make the results come
back quick for testing. You may not want to use paging for your end
purposes but it's a good idea when testing. Also, the stories in the above
result set may not be linked to Goals but you will still see a Goal
relation in the XML.)

From the Goal side, things are again a little more tricky. If we only care
about the Stories linked with Goals, we need to downcast. So we can ask
like this:
https://www14.v1host.com/v1sdktesting/rest-1.v1/Data/Goal?sel=Name,Nu...
