category list API return some null values

[blacktek]

Hello, when doing GET to /V1/categories?rootCategoryId=1 I've null fields in is_active (but the structure is correct)

{
  "id": 1,
  "parent_id": 0,
  "name": "Root Catalog",   
  "is_active": null,     #<---
  "position": 0,
  "level": 0,
  "product_count": 0,    
  "children_data": [
    {
      "id": 2,
      "parent_id": 1,
      "name": "Default Category",
      "is_active": true,
      "position": 1,
      "level": 1,
      "product_count": 1,
      "children_data": [
        {
          "id": 3,
          "parent_id": 2,
          "name": "Category",
          "is_active": true,
          "position": 1,
          "level": 2,
          "product_count": 2,
          "children_data": []
        }
      ]
    },

This problems happens only with search filter "rootCategoryId=1" that I use to get ALL the category trees. If I use "CategoryId=2" it works, But I need a way to get all category trees across all websites with one call.

Hello @blacktek

We have rechecked this in Magento 2.4-develop

We used swagger and the following query /rest/all/V1/categories The Response body is

{
  "id": 1,
  "parent_id": 0,
  "name": "Root Catalog",     #<---
  "is_active": null,     #<---
  "position": 0,
  "level": 0,
  "product_count": 0,     #<---
  "children_data": [
    {
      "id": 2,
      "parent_id": 1,
      "name": "Default Category",
      "is_active": true,
      "position": 1,
      "level": 1,
      "product_count": 1,
      "children_data": [
        {
          "id": 3,
          "parent_id": 2,
          "name": "Category",
          "is_active": true,
          "position": 1,
          "level": 2,
          "product_count": 2,
          "children_data": []
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "id": 4,
      "parent_id": 1,
      "name": "root",
      "is_active": true,
      "position": 2,
      "level": 1,
      "product_count": 1,
      "children_data": [
        {
          "id": 5,
          "parent_id": 4,
          "name": "subcategory",
          "is_active": true,
          "position": 1,
          "level": 2,
          "product_count": 0,
          "children_data": []
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

As you can see there are values for name and product_count

However, the is_active still returns null

Can you please confirm if you have the same, or different, result on Magento 2.4-develop?

If the result is the same, we will have to update some issue description and then, confirm it

Thank you in advance

Hello, good that an issue still exists on 2.4-develop too.

Unfortunately I'm unable to install a Magento 2.4-develop; this is something usually done by our sysadmins that have not enough time now.

Is this mandatory to proceed? it seems that some issue exist. Thank you
