Add the support of required field in APIS Body

We need to force APIs consummer to provide mandatory fields in the JSON body of an APIS.
This is really important for APIS that use a MQ service because in this case we have no way to check fields before the message is PUT in the queue by the service.
This option is available in swagger 2.0 specification : https://swagger.io/specification/v2/ we can use things like this :

"definitions": {
"ErrorModel": {
"type": "object",
"required": [
"message",
"code"
],
"properties": {
"message": {
"type": "string"
},
"code": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 100,
"maximum": 600
}
}
}

But in the APIToolkit we cannot set anywhere this options in request mapping.
Of course we can use query/path parameter where this option is avaiblable but we cannot put all the fields as path/query paramters.

    Hello,

    You are redirecting to a RFE that is no more under consideration & that has not been resubmited. Is there another RFE on the same subject or do i need to resubmit it again ?

    Thank you for this RFE.

    We are accepting this requirement to cover the need for z/OS Connect to be able to host APIs that have schema with mandatory fields described in the OpenAPI specification of the API. If you require validation that mandatory fields are provided on requests to, for example, reject requests without those fields, then please vote on accepted RFE 147569, which covers the need for API request validation:
