Cannot remove metadata entries with typed / builder update params

Note: I’ve noticed that with issuing authorizations and transactions but this might be happening with other objects as well.

To try and remove a metadata entry (currently set to "foo": "bar") I try the following:

authorization.update(AuthorizationUpdateParams.builder()
        .putMetadata("foo", null)
        .build());

However this does not seem to make any change to the object (the metadata entry is still there with the old value).

I tried calling .putMetadata("foo", "") but the SDK rejects empty strings.

The workaround I found was to call:

authorization.update(AuthorizationUpdateParams.builder()
        .putExtraParam("metadata[foo]", EmptyParam.EMPTY)
        .build());

which worked.

Should it be possible to remove metadata entries with putMetadata?

Just a quick note that I was able to reproduce the issue. I have a fair idea of what causes this bug, but it’s going to be tricky to fix. We’ll post an update here when we’ve made some progress. Thanks for your patience!

This should be fixed in the latest version, v15.3.1.
