Merative Ideas Portal

Shape the future of Merative!

We invite you to shape the future of Merative, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Post your ideas

Start by posting ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,

  1. Post an idea

  2. Upvote ideas that matter most to you

  3. Get feedback from the Merative team to refine your idea

Help Merative prioritize your ideas and requests

The Merative team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The offering manager team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at Merative works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.

Receive notification on the decision

Some ideas can be implemented at Merative, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

JSON sub objects and attributes submitted as null are available in REST facade as filled Objects with Default Values

We have a requirement in AMS project for "Update" calls that only those fields which need update are sent to us and remaining attributes and sub objects(represented by aggregated structs) are marked as null. We have limitations in Curam/REST framework which will lead to certain incorrect updates. The problem we are seeing because of the infrastructure is, even when the JSON which is passed to us doesn't have an object set at all, Curam instantiates the correspending struct and sets the default values. Attributes of type String are set as blank, numbers are set to zero, booleans are set to 'false' and characters are set to blank space.
