item_option_selection - Where to put in the json request?

Question

I see in the documentation that there's a way to set item options: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/#definition-item_option_selection

Where do i exactly put this in paypal example? I don't find examples or any instruction on paypal developers documentation

The object is not part of the Paypal REST api anymore. It will be removed soon
