qix createBookmarkEx argument error

Issue: Unable to Use CreateBookmarkEx Method in QIX API

Description

While using the QIX API to create bookmarks with soft patches, we are unable to use the CreateBookmarkEx method. Regardless of the parameter set in prop, the parameter actually sent by the code is always true.

Logs

Below are some logs showing what is sent by the WebSocket (the function had prop parameters):

SENT: {"delta":true,"handle":1,"method":"CreateBookmarkEx","params":[true,null],"id":45,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}
RECEIVED: {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":45,"error":{"code":-32700,"parameter":"Unexpected JSON token","message":"JSON parse error"}}

As you can see the first parameter is replaced by true.

Investigation

I found that in the file @qlik/api/chunks/LIPAU4N5.js, the first parameter is always replaced by true (at line 9769):

createBookmark(_createBookmark, props) {
  return _createBookmark(
    merge2(
      {},
      {
        qInfo: {
          qType: "bookmark"
        },
        qMetaDef: {
          title: "",
          description: ""
        },
        creationDate: (/* @__PURE__ */ new Date()).toISOString()
      },
      props
    )
  );
},
createBookmarkEx(_createBookmarkEx, props, patchObjs) {
  return _createBookmarkEx(
    merge2(
      true,
      {
        qInfo: {
          qType: "bookmark"
        },
        qMetaDef: {
          title: "",
          description: ""
        },
        creationDate: (/* @__PURE__ */ new Date()).toISOString()
      },
      props
    ),
    patchObjs
  );
}

Solution

Setting this parameter to {} as in the regular createBookmark version resolves the issue.

Question

Is there a specific reason for this behavior in the createBookmarkEx method?
