How to define Swagger 2.0 JSON to populate default body parameter object in Swagger UI?
<p>Our current deployment patterns require me to manually write my swagger json output that will be consumed by the Swagger-based UI in use at my company.  I'd like the json I'm writing to provide 'default' values to populate the Swagger UI for all input fields, including the body input parameter.  My body parameter is a referenced object as seen below.  How do I define the returned swagger JSON to auto populate the body portion of the request when the "Try this operation" is clicked?</p>

<p>An example Swagger spec that has no default/example data populated in the Swagger UI is below.</p>

<p>I have been testing this json at <a href="http://editor.swagger.io/#/" rel="noreferrer">http://editor.swagger.io/#/</a> by clicking <code>File-&gt;Paste JSON...</code>.  I then click <code>"Try this operation"</code>, scroll down and observe that the values of my body parameter are not populated - that's what I'd like to change.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for any suggestions.</p>
