Hi Manish,

I'm not quite sure I understand your problem. What is it exactly that doesn't work as you expect?

Hi Manish,

It also depends on how you are calling the API.
Can you give us a bit more detail on how you are doing it?
Also a good way to toubleshoot what is happening is increase the logging level of your API and check what exactly are the requests and responses being sent.
