Description

The judgement is not correct, sometime if the key is exist but value is null, a new item will be created. I suggest the next codes:
def flatten_id(item, target): if target in item: if item[target] is not None: item[target + '_id'] = item.pop(target, {}).pop('id', None) return else: item.pop(target, {}) item[target + '_id'] = None

Research direction

Locate the flatten_id function in the repository and inspect how it handles keys whose values are null. Reproduce the case described in the issue, then verify that an existing null value does not create a new item and that the resulting *_id value matches the requested behavior.
