JSON Schema validation add more verbose error messages

When a schema validation error occurred, it would be good for API Connect to output either the field name or the line in the request that it failed on. This will assist the client greatly at finding out which field actually failed the schema validation.

    Hi,

    For the JSON/REST Validation, the config options should allow for verbose error responses. As of now, the response is only one "leaf" of the entire validation error tree, and with no context.

    All the JSON/REST libraries I have used with are eager to dump the entire error path when validation fails. Why is this option not available in APIC?

    I suggest a switch in the APIC Validation config with 3 options: [ none, minimal, verbose ] 

    This allows the APIC admin team the option to be silent & secure, or verbose & helpful. Especially for test environments.

    +1 for this enhancement request at runtime. Ideally, we would like to see error payload containing the property in JSON pointer format (RFC6901) - RFC 6901 - JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Pointer -or XPath for the case of xml content type. 

    The enhancement should support both the pointer/xpath (in case of body validation error) as well as parameter (in case of query param issue).

    Please support multiple errors so that users can identify all issues with the request, rathert than 1 at a time.

    Hi Dan, it is normal runtime back to all clients.


    Client wanted to know which element in the JSON payload failed the schema validation so they can resend the correct ones.
