How to avoid pxobjclass filed from REST API service response in Pega 7.1.7
while building Rest API service, when converting a pagelist/page to JSON response, it is taking pxobjclass also as a field. We need to drop the pxobjclass from the JSON response. Appreciate any insights on this.
Platform - 7.1.7

You can convert your Page into a string using function @(Pega-RULES:Page).pxConvertStringToPage(tools, myStepPage, Param.Request, "json"), by giving the response page as the step page.
Once the page is converted into a string, you can remove the pxObjClass from the string using REGEX.
Param.JSONResponse = @(Pega-RULES:Page).pxConvertStringToPage(tools, myStepPage, Param.Request, "json")
Param.JSONResponse = @pxReplaceAllViaRegex(Param.JSONResponse,",.*?\"pxObjClass\":\"\"","")
Param.JSONResponse = @pxReplaceAllViaRegex(Param.JSONResponse,"\"pxObjClass.*?\n,","")

Param.JSONResponse = @pxReplaceAllViaRegex(Param.JSONResponse,"\"pxObjClass.*?\n","")
These regex are used to remove the pxObjClass of step page and also the pxObjClass in any of the embedded pages / pagelist structure inside the StepPage/
