Batch response: Improved error handling when "UserCollectionResponse" is returned but discrimiator is set to "User"

Graph Core Version: 3.1.9
Kiota Version: 1.1.7
Affected Method: com.microsoft.graph.core.requests.ResponseBodyHandler#handleResponse

Edit: Added a comment explaining the reason of this behavior and changed the issue title.

Microsoft Graph core returns an object with all properties set to null, if the response body contains a nested structure.

Expected behavior

com.microsoft.graph.core.requests.ResponseBodyHandler#handleResponse should parse nested response objects. And maybe throw an error if a response can not be parsed.

Actual behavior

com.microsoft.graph.core.requests.ResponseBodyHandler#handleResponse returns a object with all properties set to null.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Execute the following request using the Graph API: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$batch

Body is GET users?$filter=identities/any(c:c/issuerAssignedId eq '<the issuer Assigned id>' and c/issuer eq 'contoso.com')&$select=id,displayName,email,UserPrincipalName,identities,accountEnabled

{
    "requests": [
        {
            "id": "d26195f1-aa54-461f-9119-aa98687ea27e",
            "url": "/users?%24filter=identities%2Fany% ... ",
            "method": "GET",
            "headers": {
                "accept": "application/json"
            }
        }
    ]
}

Response: shortended just to show the structure. Note the nested structure in the body which causes the erroneous behavior.

{
    "responses": [ 
         {
            "id": "766378b9-df71-473d-909a-da07fa9f10c5",
            "status": 200,
            "headers": {...},
            "body": {
                "@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#users(id,displayName,email,userPrincipalName,identities,accountEnabled)",
                "value": [
                    {
                        "id": "<some Id>",
                        "displayName": "John Doe",
                        "userPrincipalName": "cpim_something",
                        "accountEnabled": false,
                        "identities": [...]
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    ]
}

Remarks

I verified this by unnesting the structure and re-parsing the response:

ByteArrayInputStream unnestedResponse =  new ByteArrayInputStream(((java.util.ArrayList)((JsonArray)((com.google.gson.internal.LinkedTreeMap.Node)((com.google.gson.internal.LinkedTreeMap)((JsonObject)((JsonParseNode)parseNode).currentNode).members).entrySet().toArray()[1]).getValue()).elements).get(0).toString().getBytes());

String contentType = body.contentType().type() + "/" + body.contentType().subtype();

this.parseNodeFactory
    .getParseNode(contentType, unnestedResponse)
    .getObjectValue(this.factory);

An intermediate fix (not yet tested) could be to provide your own implementation of ResponseBodyHandler when invoking com.microsoft.graph.core.content.BatchResponseContentCollection#getResponseById(java.lang.String, com.microsoft.kiota.ResponseHandler)

Comece com com.microsoft.graph.core.requests.ResponseBodyHandler#handleResponse e rastreie como o body aninhado de uma resposta POST $batch é passado para o nó de parsing. Revise BatchResponseContentCollection#getResponseById e a reprodução JSON aninhada fornecida. Está concluído quando objetos UserCollectionResponse aninhados são analisados corretamente, com uma falha apropriada para respostas que não possam ser analisadas.
