Jersey 2.8 client is not ignoring unknown properties during deserialization

Try initializing the Jersey client with a JacksonJsonProvider that's been configured appropriately:

final JacksonJsonProvider jacksonJsonProvider = new JacksonJaxbJsonProvider().configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false);final Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient(new ClientConfig(jacksonJsonProvider));

This was tested with Jackson 2.5.1 and Jersey 2.17

I had same issue and looking for a solution... find your proposition and it works for me :)

My test is very basic / see here below :

    Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient()            .register(JacksonFeature.class).register(JacksonConfigurator.class);    WebTarget wt = client.target(REST_SERVICE_URL).path(            "amount");    wt = wt.queryParam("from", "USD");    ConverterResponse cr=wt.request().get(ConverterResponse.class);

If I don't register your JacksonConfigurator, I get same exception as yours :

UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field 

Because converterResponse defines a subset of REST response object methods.

Thank you very much !

Jersey version 2.30:

Exception:Caused by: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "failedLoginCount" at [Source: org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.ReaderInterceptorExecutor$UnCloseableInputStream@77fbf8c9; line: 1, column: 100] (through reference chain: com.xx.XXX["failedLoginCount"]) at com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException.from(UnrecognizedPropertyException.java:62)

it works in below code:

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationFeature;import org.glassfish.jersey.client.ClientConfig;import org.glassfish.jersey.jackson.internal.jackson.jaxrs.json.JacksonJaxbJsonProvider;import org.glassfish.jersey.jackson.internal.jackson.jaxrs.json.JacksonJsonProvider;public class ServiceClient {    private Client client;    public ServiceClient() {        ClientConfig config = new ClientConfig();        JacksonJsonProvider            jacksonJsonProvider = new JacksonJaxbJsonProvider().configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false);        config.register(jacksonJsonProvider);        client = ClientBuilder.newClient(config);    }}
