JSON Jackson parse different keys into same field

by

Well, as only deserialization is your concern, @JsonAlias introduced in 2.9 is perfect for this situation. You can do something like this:

@JsonAlias({"cover_asset", "asset"})
private Asset asset;

@JsonAlias docs:

Annotation that can be used to define one or more alternative names
for a property, accepted during deserialization as alternative to the
official name. Alias information is also exposed during POJO
introspection, but has no effect during serialization where primary
name is always used.

Note: Make sure you update all related dependencies(annotations, core, databind) if you are using them. Updating just annotations without others threw me runtime error.
