Problem conclusion

  • Apply the fix for JR60663.
    Note for customers using IGC REST API - provided fixes may
    affect software that parses IGC REST API responses. Change
    considers format of property names (JSON keys) returned in
    /search response for custom attribute properties.
    Example: Try search for property "parent_category.custom_any
    Custom Attribute" for "term" or "category" asset type.
    Before: Response contained a JSON key like "custom_Parent
    Category - any Custom Attribute" which is considered to be
    invalid REST identifier for a property.
    Now: Response - returns "parent_category.custom_any Custom
    Attribute" key - valid identifier, same as provided in the
    request
