Hi Martin, this is correct and a good observation.
If you look in the source code you can see that we have specified a JSON field name directly on the get method: @JsonProperty( "organisationUnits" ) https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-core/blob/master/dhis-2/dhis-api/src/main/java/org/hisp/dhis/organisationunit/OrganisationUnitGroup.java This was done to improve on a bad naming choice ("members") in the past and to expose a more sensible name in the API. This is then reflected in the schemas API as you observed. We hope to change the Java property name in the future but it requires a bit of refactoring. You can get the name of collections as they are actually rendered in the API through the "collectionName" schema property in the mean time. You could say that we should have a dedicated consistent schema property for the "API field", we could perhaps work on that. best, Lars On 6 January 2018 at 14:26, Martin Van Aken <mar...@joyouscoding.com> wrote: > Hello! > > I'm making a new DHIS2 App and so make use of the API through d2.
