Hi,
After installing MCF 2.12 I am seeing a change in the JSON response
format from the REST API.
Here's an example, from the URL mcf-api-service/json/jobs. I've isolated
a job which exists in both my 2.11 and 2.12 instances. 2.11 is on the left:
The 2.12 format feels "internal" and I see that
https://manifoldcf.apache.org/release/release-2.12/api/framework/constant-values.html
shows e.g. "_type_", "_children_" as constants (but that's also true in
2.12.
I can't see a release note that talks about this change, although
"CONNECTORS-1549: Problem with API output JSON: losing order in child
records." talks about JSON format and the test data for that change
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12944641/CONNECTORS-1549.patch)
appears to change the JSON format as in my observation.
Is this change expected, and if so is there a way to request the
pre-2.12 format?
Cheers,
James
