Answer 1

With Jackson 2.x use can use the following to enable wrapper without adding addition properties in the ObjectMapper

import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonTypeInfo;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonTypeName;

@JsonTypeInfo(include = JsonTypeInfo.As.WRAPPER_OBJECT, use = JsonTypeInfo.Id.NAME)
@JsonTypeName(value = "student")
public class Student {
  private String name;
  private String id;
}
