@kevdoran thanks for taking care of this, what do you think about doing
something like this?
https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-commons/nifi-web-utils/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/web/util/ObjectMapperResolver.java
You then register that as a provider with Jersey and I think whenever it
marshalls JSON it will use that custom ObjectMapper.
I guess it depends if we want to make a global decision to never include
nulls, but my preference would be to keep the Jackson annotations out of the
domain objects if possible.

> Currently, NiFi Registry responses include null values for optional fields in
> the serialized Json. This ticket is to add Jackson annotations that prevent
> explicit "null" from being serialized for optional fields, instead just
> omitting the optional fields, as not all clients/frameworks can interpret
> null correctly.
