Jackson JSON View

public class Views {

    public static class Public {
    }

    public static class Internal extends Public {
    }
}

Model

public class Item {

    @JsonView(Views.Public.class)
    private Integer id;

    @JsonView(Views.Public.class)
    private String itemName;

    @JsonView(Views.Internal.class)
    private String ownerName;

    ...
}

Controller

Use the CONVERSION_HINT_HEADER with SimpMessagingTemplate.

@MessageMapping("/messaging-template")
public void useMessagingTemplate(Principal principal) {
    var user = principal.getName();
    var destination = "/response";
    var item = getItem();
    var headers = getHeaders();

    messagingTemplate.convertAndSendToUser(user, destination, item, headers);
}

private Map<String, Object> getHeaders() {
    return Map.of(CONVERSION_HINT_HEADER, Views.Public.class);
}

Use the @JsonView annotation for controller methods.

@MessageMapping("/send-to-user-annotation")
@SendToUser(value = "/response", broadcast = false)
@JsonView(Views.Public.class)
public Item useSendToUserAnnotation() {
    return getItem();
}
