Added an overload of the
BullhornData.updateEntity
method to allow client code to set certain fields to NULL via the REST API.To accomplish this, a new Jackson JSON filter has been created (See DynamicNullValueFilter.java) which takes a set of fields that should be included in the update regardless of their value. Users should be careful and make sure any NULL values come from setting the field to NULL explicitly, and not having forgotten to include the field when querying (for example when using
BullhornData.findEntity
/BullhornData.queryForList
/BullhornData.searchForList
