@JsonAnyGetter allows a getter method to return Map which is then used to serialize the additional properties of JSON in the similar fashion as other properties.

Example without @JsonAnyGetter

import java.io.IOException; 
import java.util.HashMap; 
import java.util.Map; 
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper; 

public class JacksonTester { 
   public static void main(String args[]){
      ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); 
      try{
         Student student = new Student(); 
         student.add("Name", "Mark"); 
         student.add("RollNo", "1"); 
         String jsonString = mapper 
            .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter() 
            .writeValueAsString(student); 
         System.out.println(jsonString); 
      } 
      catch (IOException e) { 
         e.printStackTrace(); 
      }   
   }
}
class Student {
   private Map<String, String> properties; 
   public Student(){ 
      properties = new HashMap<>(); 
   } 
   public Map<String, String> getProperties(){ 
      return properties; 
   } 
   public void add(String property, String value){ 
      properties.put(property, value); 
   } 
}

Output

{
   "properties" : {
      "RollNo" : "1",
      "Name" : "Mark"
   } 
}

Example with @JsonAnyGetter

import java.io.IOException; 
import java.util.HashMap; 
import java.util.Map; 
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonAnyGetter; 
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper; 

public class JacksonTester {
   public static void main(String args[]){
      ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
      try{
         Student student = new Student(); 
         student.add("Name", "Mark"); 
         student.add("RollNo", "1"); 
         String jsonString = mapper 
            .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter() 
            .writeValueAsString(student); 
         System.out.println(jsonString); 
      }
      catch (IOException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
      } 
   }
}
class Student {
   private Map<String, String> properties;
   public Student(){
      properties = new HashMap<>();
   }
   @JsonAnyGetter
   public Map<String, String> getProperties(){
      return properties;
   }
   public void add(String property, String value){
      properties.put(property, value);
   }
}

Output

{
   "RollNo" : "1",
   "Name" : "Mark"
}
