> If the web api is passed service ids as empty strings instead of nulls, the result is an error that the service could not be found with id "".  This can be confusing, especially since the service id may not be the one being created, but rather something referenced.
> the api should treat empty strings the same as if they were nulls, either through a test, logically 
> {code:java}
> if ( controllerService.id() != null) {
>  ...
> }
> // should be 
> if ( !StringUtils.isNullOrEmpty(controllerService.id()) {
>  ...
> }
> {code}
> or something that explicitly cleans up the DTOs
