Example object with RequestBody support

• Question. I know ‘defaultValue’ property is no more supported for RequestBody. Is ‘Example’ property works for ‘RequestBody’? I do not see any sample in docs for it. Tried using SpringFox 2.9.2, following code for reference:

@ApiParam(name = "body",value = "Request body in JSON format...",required=true,
					examples = @io.swagger.annotations.Example(value= @ExampleProperty( mediaType = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE,
				      value = "{foo: whatever, bar: whatever2}"))
				  ) @RequestBody String body, 

I would like to display one large JSON as example value for request body and clicking on ‘Try it out’ application should show same in edit mode. Please refer to following URL for my expectation behavior []https://petstore.swagger.io/#/store/placeOrder Also note that I am not passing any objects in parameters to method, it is simple ‘String’ type request body as I have mentioned above in my code snippet. Please suggest.

I am also facing the same problem, In my case our legacy REST API payload is very complicated. If we do not provide sample then our Open APIs are of no use.
