Dear support,

I'm using the api to create the travel object , for example "RailObject". My example request is like:

{
    "RailObject": {
        "Segment": {
            "StartDateTime": {
                "date": "2022-09-04",
                "time": "19:44:00"
            },
            "StartStationAddress": {
                "address": "杭州东站",
                "city": "杭州市",
                "zip": "330113",
                "country": "CN",
                "latitude": "30.291538",
                "longitude": "120.212427"
            },
            "start_station_name": "杭州东站",
            "carrier_name": "铁路12306",
            "coach_number": "4",
            "confirmation_num": "E312023219",
            "seats": "9C",
            "train_number": "G1656"
        },
        "Traveler": {
            "first_name": "张",
            "last_name": "三"
        }
    }
}

You can see inside the "StartStationAddress", I explicitly input the city, zip, latitude, and longitude. The request could be executed successfully but all those explicitly specified fields in the response are changed. Does it mean TripIt API ignores all the fields of type Address except the "address" subfield in the request? But the information input by the user is in my case more accurate and more readable(the city subfield is also Chinese characters as address subfield) for the user. So Is it a limitation for the TripIt API? Do we have any mechanisms to disable TripIt to override this information?
