This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit ZCEE-I-100 Ability to specify the client side interface of an API, created in the API Editor.

Possibility to avoid the group object in API definition. Merged

Possibility to avoid the group object in API definition.

Currently, when we create a service/API, the 01 level of cobol copy is added to the API definition. If no 01 level is specified, then a default entry is added based on cobol copy name.

In the request, it adds an additional group object to the API definition and is mandatory.
In the response, even when all the individual variables are excluded, we still get the group object.

This is limiting the flexibility/functionality when compared to the standard REST api definitions. Need an option to exclude the group object (01 level) from the API definition.
