Values of attributes at group attachment level not written in series node in sdmx-json - SDMXRI-1553 - NSI WS 8.1.3
Issue found by ISTAT:
During some tests we noted a strange behaviour about attributes at group attachment level in sdmx-json answers.
We have a dataflow using the attached DSD (DSD_JUS_TEST+SDMX+1.1), which contains a group named GROUP1 based on dimensions CASE and COURT and the attribute ATT_GROUP linked to that group.
The answer in sdmx-ml format (see the attached "sdmx-ml-result.xml" file) seems to be correct; instead, the one in sdmx-json format (see the attached "sdm-json-result.txt" file) seems to ignore the attribute.
In particular the attribute is listed among those at series level (4 in total) but only 3 attributes are reported for each series. Our guess is that attributes at group level are at present ignored for some reason in sdmx-json format.
Response from Tasos CHRONIS:
I can reproduce the issue using a test DSD with 2 groups. The issue seems to be related to SDMX-JSON only. But to be sure I think a test needs to be written at SdmxSource level.
