Defect in Prediction API - need to add access method for mixture and numeric data type about google-api-java-client

Thanks for reporting the problem.  Can you try changing the type for Input.text 
as follows and see if it fixes the problem:

  public List<Object> text = new ArrayList<Object>();

 public List<Object> text = new ArrayList<Object>();   Does not work

I get the following : 
{"error":{"errors":[{"domain":"global","reason":"invalid","message":"'data' 
field must contain a JSON object."}],"code":400,"message":"'data' field must 
contain a JSON object."}}

This is what I did:
  List<Object> mix = new ArrayList<Object>();
  mix.add(text);
  content.data = mix;

Note : my problem is not with inputData.input.text.add(text) not working. The 
call is  working. I am not sure how to set the input to be of "mixture" type

Just change the "text" field name to "mixture".  It matches the name of the 
JSON key.

I did not get it.

the text field is a class level variable defined in the Java API. I dont have 
an option to set this as mixture anywhere.

In the call - inputData.input.text.add(...) . text is a class level varible . 
Where Do I set it to be mixture.  

Code snippet:
InputData inputData = new InputData(); 
inputData.input.text.add(text); 
content.data = inputData; 
request.content = content;

So , I did what you suggested.

Changed the Input class to be Input  class to be

public class Input {
  @Key
  public List<String> mixture = new ArrayList<String>();
}

and my predict call to be

inputData.input.mixture.add(text);


It did not work.

I get this error.
