Using AWS API Gateway to build a patch method

I am using API Gateway to build a patch method. In then Integration Request - Mapping Template i added:

{ "id": "$input.params('subscription-id')",
  "env": "$stageVariables['env']",
  "street": $input.json('street'),
  "address_name": $input.json('address_name'),
  "payment_day": $input.json('payment_day'),
 }

As a patch http method, the user's API is not required to pass all the parameters.

So if the user doesn't pass, for e.g. payment_day, the field is going to be ''. The '' can be a valid value field. So i have two options:

Is it possible to do this on API Gateway Integration Request -Mapping Template? Does anyone has a workaround?

You can use Velocity Conditionals to only output optional values if present.

Alternately, as mentioned in comments, you can just pass the entire JSON body using $input.json('$') and handle the presence or lack there of inside your Lambda function.
