Swagger Array: Null Values Swag

I am currently working on creating a swagger file to call an API. As part of the application some values have to have the option of being a single value or an array. In order to do so I do the following



    Name:
Type: array
Items:
Type:string
Example: John


The issue is that when I dont fill in this portion of the request, swagger still sends



     "Name":  


into the curl request which causes an error in my application. Is there a way to modify this code so when nothing is put into the request the the curl request doesn't have a "Name" Field? Similar to when the Type is just string, when nothing is specified, no information is put into the curl request.



Name:      
Type: String


I used the following link as reference and thought Nullable: would be a potential solution but this throws an error within the swagger editor.



https://swagger.io/docs/specification/data-models/data-types/



Thank you!

  • Do you use swagger: '2.0' or openapi: 3.0.0? Does the array need to be sent in the query string or request body? What is the current curl command, and what curl do you expect to get? Can you also post the complete API definition? (The example you posted is not valid syntax - the indentation is off and the keywords must be lowercase, e.g. type: string not Type: String.)
