Element Detail

patchable

public abstract boolean patchable

Returns:

true if a given field is patchable; meaning that it will only be serialized to a server if the value has changed. A patch operation requires an etag request to summarize whether the receiving party is already aware of the current variable's value or not. Setting to false will cause the value to be serialized upon every request.

Default:

true
