Jackson Annotations - @JsonInclude

@JsonInclude is used at exclude properties having null/empty or default values.

Example - @JsonInclude

import java.io.IOException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonInclude;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;

pubpc class JacksonTester {
   pubpc static void main(String args[]){
      ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
      try {
         Student student = new Student(1,null);       
         String jsonString = mapper
            .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter()
            .writeValueAsString(student);
         System.out.println(jsonString);
      }
      catch (IOException e) { 
         e.printStackTrace();
      }     
   }
}
@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
class Student { 
   pubpc int id; 
   pubpc String name;

   Student(int id,String name){
      this.id = id;
      this.name = name;
   }   
}

Output

{
   "id" : 1
}
