Updating an XML Profile via ASM REST with a partial body (ex. just an updated description) removes all attached WSDL validation files as if it had also received: "validationFiles": []
If the full validation files structure is not re-iterated in the body, then the entire list of WSDL validation files will be emptied. This will cause the XML Schema to not be validated properly during enforcement.
XML Profiles that utilize validation files are updated via REST
Run the validation file association task again after updating the XML Profile
ASM REST now correctly updates only specified fields on a PATCH request.
