Research direction

Locate the OpenAPI schema definitions for identifier, collection, collection-update-reason, artifact, checksum, and component-release. Review which significant fields should be required and remove required entries that have no matching property. Done means the affected schemas consistently declare valid required properties.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Prio 2

Many schema objects in the OpenAPI specification do not define required constraints for their most significant fields. Examples include identifier, collection, collection-update-reason, artifact, and checksum.

Additionally, some schemas declare required properties that do not exist, such as in component-release.
