How to remove parameters that has null from the docusign result - docusignapi

Question

I have implemented the endpoint by using DocuSign Java SDK and it is working fine but the result is a bit different in comparison to the result getting from Postman. Below is the result from Postman when calling {{baseUrl}}/v2.1/accounts/{{accountId}}/envelopes?folder_ids=out_for_signature&include=recipients&exclude=folders,powerforms
result

And the result from SDK when having this code
final EnvelopesApi envelopesApi = new EnvelopesApi(apiClient);
val options = envelopesApi.new ListStatusChangesOptions();
options.setFolderIds("out_for_signature");
options.setInclude("recipients");
options.setExclude("folders,powerForms");

I have to get the same result as I get from Postman. Is there any options I need to add or remove in coding?

Answer 1

In C# and Java the DocuSign SDKs not yet using dynamic typing and modern techniques to build objects. The objects have to (from the nature of classic OOP design for both C# and Java) have all the various properties that can be returned, or else you will need a different object for each combination of returned data.

Well, you are getting the same results in the JSON that the SDK sends behind the scenes, but the object has additional null properties. I'm not clear why this is an issue for you. Simple null checks can be used to determine which of these have a value. You can even build your own type of dynamic objects by creating them on the fly and eliminating nulls if you really need this.
