Research direction

Start by locating where optional parameters are collected and passed from the CLI to the SRC API, then compare behavior when parameters are omitted with the defaults defined in SRC. The issue is done when omitted optional parameters retain their SRC defaults instead of being sent as empty strings; the issue does not name specific files or tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It seems that when not setting all expected optional parameters, some optional parameters are getting set to "", rather than keeping the default for the param defined in SRC. Investigate.
