I have this issue and I think its starts appearing after swagger 0.8.1 upgrade:

          {
             "token": ""123"
             "$$ref": "#/components/schemas/auth"
          }

Expected behaviour:

           {
             "token": ""123"
          }

Code:

            "responses": {
               "200": {
                 "examples": {
                   "application/json": {
                       "data": {
                          "$ref": "#/components/schemas/auth"
                           }
                      }
                  }
                }

I have found this issue on github for swagger and it’s suppose to be fixed.

Any suggestions or workaround?

Thanks
