I have a custom snap that has a property that is defined as follows:
SnapProperty referenceNumberProperty = propertyBuilder.describe(REFERENCE_NUMBER_PROPERTY, REFERENCE_NUMBER_LABEL,
"The reference number to associate with the API call")
.type(SnapType.STRING)
.required()
.expression(SnapProperty.DecoratorType.ACCEPTS_SCHEMA)
.build();
I have inserted a top-level field in the payload called ReferenceNumber. If I enter $ReferenceNumber into the field, I can see the value added by the Mapper, as shown below.
However, when I save the changes, the validation fails with the error that $ReferenceNumber is null.
Reason:
Value referenced in the sub-expression '$ReferenceNumber' is null

What do I need to do to allow this to work properly?
