Symptoms

In Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) 12c, using OdiInvokeRESTfulService does not allow "empty" context when a logical schema is set.

According to the description documentation an empty context should be possible, in which case the execution context should be used. However, the context always defaults to the global context.

See simulation mode below:

Even though the context code is set to <CONTEXT CODE> the OdiInvokeRESTfulService is command is always executed with "-CONTEXT=GLOBAL"

To reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a Logical Schema for RESTfull service (physical one isn't necessary).
2. Create a Package.
3. Create an OdiInvokeRESTfulService step in the Package.
4. Choose Logical Schema in the Properties.
5. Set Context to <Empty> isn't possible and "Global" is automatically set instead.
